Argentine president Javier Milei has a bad relationship with the leftist governments of Latin America. He criticizes his Mexican and Colombian counterparts, and supports Israel in the war in Gaza.

“That an ignorant person like López Obrador speaks ill of me exalts me,” he said. Milei's victory last November represented a huge blow, not only for Peronism in Argentina, but for the Latin American left. The Argentine president also attacked Petro, whom he has previously disqualified on several occasions.
