Congratulations, President @realDonaldTrump, on your magnificent leadership. Argentina stands firmly with the United States and is eager to collaborate closely with your administration.

In another post, Milei wrote:

Today I had the honor of attending the inauguration of President @realDonaldTrump. It is a historic moment for the United States and for the entire free world. Those of us who defend the life, liberty, and property of all human beings are happy to see that the ideas that we have been defending in Argentina since December 10, 2023 have triumphed again in the United States under President Trump.

Know that you will always be able to count on the Argentine Republic to defend the values ​​that made the West the greatest civilizing feat in the history of humanity. May God bless the Argentines and the Americans, may the forces of heaven be with us, and may the whole world know that everything is going according to plan.
