Santiago Caputo received Keiko Fujimori's vice president at Casa Rosada and deepens the regional right-wing alliance

The government of Javier Milei is advancing in the consolidation of a new regional right-wing bloc in light of the strong political shift occurring in Latin America. In this context, presidential advisor Santiago Caputo received the elected vice president of Peru, Luis Galarreta, one of the main figures of the future government of Keiko Fujimori, at the Casa Rosada this Monday.

The meeting took place prior to the trip of President Javier Milei to Lima to participate in Fujimori's inauguration, scheduled for July 28, and focused on opportunities for cooperation between governments and leaders who share an agenda of economic deregulation, defense of private property, and rejection of woke culture.

Galarreta was invited to Balcarce 50 by Caputo himself amid a regional scenario that represents a historic opportunity for progress. The rise of new right-wing forces has begun to alter the political map of Latin America and weaken the dominance that socialism of the 21st century has exercised for years.

Currently, the new ideological axis includes governments and leaderships such as those of Santiago Peña in Paraguay, Rodrigo Paz in Bolivia, Daniel Noboa in Ecuador, José Antonio Kast in Chile, Nayib Bukele in El Salvador, Nasry Asfura in Honduras, Luis Abinader in the Dominican Republic, Laura Fernández in Costa Rica, and José Raúl Mulino in Panama.

Recently, the victories of Keiko Fujimori in Peru and Abelardo de la Espriella in Colombia have added to this scenario, two results that reinforced the expectation of the Casa Rosada regarding a political reorganization of the region around ideas closer to those of President Milei.

The meeting between Caputo and Galarreta focused precisely on the possibilities of regional collaboration, the new geopolitical context, and the need to halt future advances of the left in Latin America.

The presidential advisor has already held private conversations with other representatives of the new bloc. In Paraguay, he met with Peña and Vice President Pedro Alliana, while in Buenos Aires, he received Cristian Valenzuela, the main advisor to Kast, and Chilean ambassador Gonzalo Uriarte Herrera.

At the moment, the government is not formally working on organizing a summit of right-wing leaders in Argentina. However, it is believed that the growing political alignment among the leaders will facilitate meetings and greater coordination.
