elDiario.es mentions Milei among the right-wing governments that have benefited from Trump's interference in Latin America

An article in elDiario.es analyzes how Flávio Bolsonaro’s victory in the first round of Brazil’s presidential election is part of a wave of victories by the right and far right in Latin America—a continent where, according to the publication, Donald Trump’s interference in electoral processes has been decisive. The article reviews cases such as Ecuador, Bolivia, Chile, Honduras, Costa Rica, Peru, and Colombia, where Trump reportedly openly supported various candidates.

In this review, the publication includes Javier Milei among the leaders who were already in office before Trump’s arrival at the White House and who share that ideological orientation, alongside El Salvador’s Nayib Bukele. The article also notes that Trump made an economic bailout for Argentina contingent on Milei’s performance in the legislative elections, citing this as an example of U.S. influence in regional politics.
