In December 2023, Javier Milei assumed the presidency of Argentina, becoming the first self-professed libertarian head of state in the world. Now in his third year of governance, Milei has fulfilled his promises to reduce bureaucracy, impose austerity, and lift currency controls. And he’s been an outspoken voice for conservatism internationally. In the October 2025 midterms, Milei’s party outperformed expectations, giving the president a larger bench of support in Congress to push through key legislation, including tax and labor reforms.
"It was a very important moment in the president’s tenure,” says the AS/COA senior advisor, who covers the Argentine leader's first six months in office.
