The proposal presented by Bessent included three central pillars:
- Negotiation of a USD 20 billion swap line with the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA).
- Possibility of bond purchases in dollars by the United States Treasury.
- Granting of a stand-by loan through the Exchange Stabilization Fund.
This package of measures is part of Washington's strategy to support the government of Javier Milei and ensure a solid financial front amid electoral and currency volatility.
