Thanks for posting. They do these once in a while. I've never been to one but sounds like a good way to meet the Ambassador.

What exactly do they do there? I wonder if they get any sort of turn out at these?

Will transcripts be posted to the embassy's site? I won't be able to attend.

I am not able to go either. I have never been to one. I don't believe they post a transcript but I will email the US Embassy to ask them. Maybe they are doing it because there have been so many visits by US officials since Milei was elected including some Military officials. Maybe they are getting many questions from Americans about this. I thought it was nice they would take time to do it.

I find they typically do these a few months before a vote and try to get people to vote. This year the election will be very close so they are probably using this as an excuse to get out the vote.

Larry is right. They usually do these on an election year. I've never see them market it as discussing government priorities in Argentina but with President Milei taking over there is a big change. I went many years ago and they also explained how to renew your passport but much of it was explaining how to vote and when.

Thank you all. That seems to make sense. I was watching CNN yesterday and saw Robert Deniro raving like a lunatic. It seems like the Democrats arranged it. Some of the same security staff was there. Guess they are trying to get out the vote.
