Zelenskyy congratulates Milei on winning presidential election in Argentina, thanks him for supporting Ukraine
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Twitter on Nov. 20 congratulated right-wing politician Javier Milei on his victory in the presidential elections in Argentina.
"I appreciate his (Milei’s) clear stance of support of Ukraine,” the president said.
Zelenskyy said he looked forward to working together with Milei to strengthen Ukrainian-Argentinian cooperation and restore international order based on international law.
Milei won the post of president the second round of Argentina's presidential elections, with the ruling party candidate and Minister of Economy, Sergio Massa, conceding defeat, Argentinian national news agency Télam reported on Nov. 19.
Milei achieved victory despite his outsider status in the polls and unusual manifesto of policies.
During his election campaign, he advocated making the U.S. dollar the national currency instead of the Argentine peso and proposed to close the Central Bank.
Additionally, the politician expressed his refusal to establish relations with Russia, Brazil, and China due to policy differences, prioritizing the United States and Israel as strategic allies.
