(Special envoy to Rome, Italy) Javier Milei and Donald Trump will share the deliberations of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) , which will be held in Washington towards the end of February. Milei will speak about the global economy and the control of monopolies, while Trump will make a political speech that would mark the beginning of his presidential career as a Republican Party candidate.

The CPAC brings together the most important leaders of the Republican Party and it is very possible that its sessions will begin when it is practically defined that Trump will represent the Great Old Party (GOP) against the current president of the United States, Joseph Biden.

Nikki Haley is Trump's only contender in the Republican Party race. Haley is a two-time governor of South Carolina, and her next party election is Feb. 24 . If Haley loses there - her own territory - hers, Trump will keep the nomination and be the official candidate of the GOP.

Milei was invited as a keynote speaker for the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) and is likely to participate in the last of its sessions, which will be on February 24 in DC. Trump would also speak that day, which could be very important for his political ambitions, as Haley could fall in his district clearing his presidential candidacy.

That is to say: the Argentine president and the eventual Republican candidate for the White House would be together on a key date in the United States electoral agenda.

Milei plans to take a short trip to the United States. Just forty-eight hours to get to the CPAC sessions, make her speech and return to Buenos Aires. The tentative dates would be between February 22 and 24.

The president will not have a formal meeting with Trump, nor will he set a political position regarding the upcoming elections in the United States. Milei is preparing a technical speech that will showcase her perspective on markets, monopolies, and regulations imposed by states. Her presentation is based on her latest book and will have a similar format to her disruptive speech at the Davos Forum.

MIlei feels comfortable in the ideological context of the CPAC, and his political objective is to deepen personal relationships with the key protagonists of this event that brings together the most powerful and influential representatives of the Republican Party.

In addition to meeting Trump, Milei will also take photos with Steve Bannon , Matt Gaetz or Benjamin Carson, if she gets the chance. Bannon was a star advisor to Trump, and like him, faces multiple charges in the United States justice system.

Milei talks with Trump, and was very close to visiting him at his mansion in Mar o Lago - in Florida - when he traveled as president-elect to New York and Washington, where he met with Jake Sullivan, Joseph Biden's National Security Advisor. That meeting with Sullivan was key to achieving the support of the White House in the negotiation with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Biden will be the candidate of the Democratic Party and it is very likely that Trump will represent the Republicans in the electoral race. Milei has already made this calculation and intends to exercise intelligent caution during the CPAC sessions.

The president has the rank of keynote speaker at the Conservative Political Action Conference and his appearance at the event will cause an immediate reaction of support from the Republican Party for his government management. Milei shares the main ideas of Trump's electoral platform, and in the past they have already shared opinions regarding the economy, the situation on the international board and the role of the United States in Latin America.
