Javier Milei will receive Antony Blinken at the Casa Rosada to analyze the bilateral relationship between Argentina and the United States
Javier Milei will receive Antony Blinken at the Casa Rosada this Friday and twenty-four hours later he will share the political stage with Donald Trump, the possible Republican candidate who will try to defeat Joseph Biden in the next United States elections.
The Democratic administration has supported Milei since before his inauguration, while Trump has a strong ideological and personal harmony with the Argentine president.
A few months before the presidential elections, where Biden and Trump are risking their political destiny, Milei's flexible agenda encourages Republicans and causes deep discomfort in the West Wing of the White House.
Before traveling to Washington as president-elect, Milei had planned a quick stop in Florida to meet with Trump. But the United States ambassador to Argentina, Marc Stanley, suggested that that detour be canceled from the president-elect's agenda. MIlei listened to the arguments - pure realpolitik - and only visited New York and DC.
Biden believes that Trump endorsed the storming of the Capitol to block his recognition as future president of the United States and has always condemned his position regarding gender equality, climate change, the war that Russia unleashed against Ukraine and the role of NATO. in global security.

In this context, a photo of Milei with Trump, or even an informal meeting behind closed doors, will be considered a casus belli for the Biden administration. And this definition implies that Argentina would lose geopolitical support in the White House when poverty increases, direct investment does not arrive, markets remain unstable and the economy has not yet taken off.
Milei knows this complex situation between Biden and Trump, but he still decided to travel to Washington this Friday to participate in the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). Trump will speak on Saturday, February 24 at 12:00 (local time), and Milei three hours later.
The president assures that he will not have a formal meeting with Trump, nor will he set a political position regarding the upcoming elections in the United States. Milei told Infobae that she is preparing a technical speech that will showcase her perspective on markets, monopolies and regulations imposed by the states.
Ambassador Stanley used a backchannel to convey the possible discomfort of the White House , if Milei finally takes a photo opportunity with Trump or meets secretly during the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).
The president responded that he did not plan to star in a conclave with the former Republican president, and that there was no time to have a photo with Trump.
That personal response from Milei, which finally unlocked Blinken's visit to Argentina , is now subject to a change in schedules. When the president ruled out the photo or the meeting, Trump spoke at 11:00 a.m. (local time) and he spoke four hours later.
But the CPAC agenda changed, and now it is likely that the Republican leader and the Argentine president will cross paths during a summit of Republican conservatives. Trump would make his speech at 12 noon and Milei at 3 p.m. (Washington time).
If this were the case, a photo between Milei and Trump could not be ruled out : they have personal affection for each other and agree on key issues on the international board. For example: the non-existence of Climate Change, which for Biden is a topic of constant concern.
Milei travels to CPAC this Friday on a commercial flight that will stop in Miami, and before that forty-eight hour raid to the heart of conservative thought, she will meet with Blinken at the Casa Rosada . Since the administration of Mauricio Macri, a Secretary of State has not arrived in Buenos Aires to discuss Washington's interests in Latin America.

“Secretary Blinken will meet with Argentine President Javier Milei to discuss bilateral and global issues, including sustainable economic growth, our shared commitment to human rights and democratic governance, critical minerals, and improving trade and investment. for the benefit of both countries,” said the official newsletter from the United States Embassy to announce the agenda of Biden's foreign policy chief.
Behind the diplomatic wording , the White House is concerned about China's offensive in Latin America , the actions of the terrorist group Hezbollah in the Triple Border, the application of the economic adjustment plan and the government's strategy regarding minerals and energy inputs that are keys in the current international board.
Milei shares the same concerns as Blinken, and the dialogue will flow without geopolitical inconveniences.
But Biden, like Trump, run policy as a zero-sum exercise. A photo of the president at CPAC with the possible Republican candidate could damage current diplomatic relations with the United States.
