Three projects account for nearly the entire amount Milei announced following his trip to Paris

The Latin Times website reviewed the results of Argentina Week in Paris and focused on the breakdown of the figure released by the government: of the US$27,000 million in business commitments tallied by the Argentine ambassador to France, Ian Sielecki, about US$26.4 billion corresponds to just three oil, gas, and mining initiatives: TotalEnergies’ portfolio, Pluspetrol’s development project in partnership with the provincial company GyP in Vaca Muerta, and Glencore’s copper project in Catamarca. Other announcements, such as LVMH’s acquisition of Vicuña or Hitachi’s regional center, were reported without specifying an amount.

The article also noted that INDEC reported an 11.1% year-over-year decline in investment—a figure that contrasts with the tone of the announcements—and cited an interview in *Le Point* in which Milei invited investors to come and “line their pockets.”
