Javier Milei is preparing an international tour to boost investments in Argentina
These trips are part of a strategy aimed at strengthening the country's economic integration into the world
This agenda also includes another trip scheduled for August 7 to Colombia, where he will attend the presidential inauguration of Abelardo de la Espriella.
The president Javier Milei anticipated his intense international agenda for the coming weeks, which will include visits to Brazil, Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador, as part of a strategy focused on seeking greater investments for Argentina through his travels.
As he explained, these trips are part of a foreign policy aimed at strengthening the country's insertion into the world and expanding its trade volume.
“I have a bit of a packed schedule,” the president noted during a radio interview, where he described this timeline as that of “a president willing to open up to the world.”
In that vein, he stated that the international activity aims to correct the current level of exchange: “Argentina should have three times the trade it currently has,” he asserted, while linking that goal to greater economic growth.
The itinerary will begin on July 25 in Brazil, where Milei will be in São Paulo to participate in an event where Flavio Bolsonaro will be anointed as the presidential candidate. During that visit, the President indicated that he will also travel to Brasília to greet Jair Bolsonaro.
After that trip, the president will return to the country on July 26 to attend the inauguration of the exhibition at La Rural. However, his stay will be brief, as he will depart for Peru on July 28 to participate in the inauguration of Keiko Fujimori.
The international tour will also include a visit to Ecuador to meet with President Daniel Noboa. According to Milei, there are pending agreements to be signed with the Ecuadorian president, which reinforces the economic component of the tour.
The head of state defended the impact of such activities in concrete terms. “My trips work quite well,” he stated, attributing international exposure to advances in investment matters.
In that regard, he assured that through the Large Investment Incentive Regime (RIGI), commitments of USD 150 billion have already been obtained.
Additionally, he mentioned the development of a new expanded scheme related to the energy sector. As he explained, there is a project for USD 1.2 billion for the so-called “SuperRIGI” focused on nuclear energy, which could become the first under that regime if it receives half legislative approval.
Milei insisted that the strategy of showcasing the Argentine economic direction abroad is generating visible results. “Going to show the Argentine case to the world” is yielding positive effects, he affirmed, especially “in terms of attracting investments.”
