Argentina

Argentina’s President Javier Milei will travel to Florida to meet with President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago as Argentina’s negotiations for a new IMF program approach a critical juncture. Milei is seeking a USD 20 bln loan from the IMF, with more than 40% of it requested in the first disbursement. The meeting with Trump is seen as crucial for securing the IMF program, as the US holds the most voting power at the IMF, and Trump’s support is needed to overcome resistance from other board members.
