Bill Gross warns on gold momentum as regional bank stocks tumble
Investing.com -- U.S. President Donald Trump announced Tuesday at the White House that he would endorse Argentinian President Javier Milei for re-election.
This formal endorsement follows Trump’s earlier indication of support during the UN General Assembly in September, when he handed Milei a print-out of a Truth Social post containing his endorsement.
When asked about the benefit to the United States in supporting Milei, Trump responded: "Just helping a great philosophy take over a great country. Argentina is one of the most beautiful countries that I’ve ever seen. And we want to see it succeed."
Trump added that while the endorsement might not significantly impact the United States directly, it could influence the broader region. "It’s not going to make a big difference for our country, but it will in terms of South America. If Argentina does well, you’re going to have others following and a lot of others are following," he said.
The U.S. President also noted that several South American countries that "two years ago would have never even been thought of" are now moving toward democracies or seeking "fair and balanced trading" relationships.
