Milei ends up putting Argentina at the center of the global stage. The same people who used to laugh at Milei today can't explain how the most powerful president on the planet receives him as a strategic ally and publicly supports him with a message that went around the world: "Milei is doing the right thing for his country. He has my total and absolute support. Let's make Argentina great again!"
The first thing Donald Trump did after his international tour was to receive Javier Milei. It was not a coincidence. It was a signal to the world that Argentina has returned to the right side of history. Finally, after decades of submission to the dictates of the "Foro de San Pablo," of kneeling before Latin American tyrannies and isolating itself from the free world, our country is reclaiming its natural place: ally of the West, of capitalism, of freedom, and of progress.
Meanwhile, while Milei strengthens ties with Washington, the local opposition does the only thing it knows how to do: lie, sabotage, and destroy. The same people who vacation in Disney, buy apartments in Miami, and save in dollars are scandalized because Argentina is forging a strategic alliance with the United States. The same people who used to talk about "Juan Domingo Biden" are now outraged because the North no longer supports the parasites of the state, but rather a government that is changing the rules of the game.
The work of the Kirchnerists is admirable—admirable for how systematic it is—: they try to turn every piece of good news into a tragedy. If inflation drops, they say it is "because of recession." If investment increases, they say it is "hot money." If the world praises Milei, they say "we have surrendered to imperialism." They are the eternal prophets of failure, those who only feel comfortable when the country is sinking.
But the data are clear, and the narrative can no longer cover them up: in September, food prices rose just 1.9%, the total basic basket increased 1.4%, and core inflation remained below 2%. All this in a context of constant attacks on the surplus, attempts at destabilization, and textbook media operations. Politics did everything to blow up the economic program and topple the government. Even so, they could not move the inflation rate.
A solid macro plan is the best defense against the saboteurs of progress. For the first time in decades, Argentina has fiscal balance, openness to the world, and clear rules. That is what bothers them: that inflation collapses without price controls, that the dollar stabilizes without restrictions, and that entrepreneurs are investing again without fear of the state's whip.
They used to say that Milei wanted to destroy national industry and make Tierra del Fuego disappear but, once again, the president has shown that what he wants is to transform and modernize Argentina. Today Patagonia is emerging as a global hub for manufacturing artificial intelligence components. What used to be a graveyard of subsidies is now beginning to become a laboratory of innovation.
The left shouts, kicks, invents conspiracy theories about Trump, but the reality is that the free world supports Milei because it sees a rebirth in Argentina. A country that has decided to be part of the 21st century. This time, everything indicates that there is no turning back. Because while they dream of returning to the past of bags, restrictions, and phantom ministries, productive Argentina is breathing again.
Kirchnerism may shout, manipulate, or invent conspiracies, but there is something it can't stop: the awakening of a people who have chosen freedom. Argentina has stopped asking for permission to be a power. It doesn't intend to return to the pit of populism ever again.
