Economy Minister Luis Caputo met up with his Washington counterpart, a congratulatory Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen, at the G20 summit of economy ministers in Sao Paolo with International Monetary Fund Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva, also on the scene. The United States also bulked large on the government radar – just one day after warmly welcoming Washington’s supportive Secretary of State Anthony Blinken here, President Javier Milei was cosying up to Donald Trump on the other side of the political fence at the Conservative Political Action Conference in the US capital, telling the Republican frontrunner in a flash meeting: “You were a great President and I hope you will be so again”.
The presidential entourage in Washington included Security Minister Patricia Bullrich, who told the recently re-elected President of El Salvador Nayib Bukele: “We want to follow the (law and order) model which you are driving forward”, even if Bukele commented that Argentina might only need a milder dose of his medicine as facing a less extreme crime problem.
