Argentina presidential election: far-right libertarian Javier Milei wins after rival concedes
Javier Milei, a volatile far-right libertarian who has vowed to “exterminate” inflation and take a chainsaw to the state, has been elected president of Argentina, catapulting South America’s number two economy into an unpredictable and potentially turbulent future.
With nearly 90% of votes counted, the Mick Jagger impersonating TV celebrity-turned politician, who is often compared to Donald Trump, had secured nearly 56% of the vote compared to Massa’s 44.1%.
Milei’s rival, the centre-left finance minister Sergio Massa, conceded defeat in a press conference on Sunday night.
During his campaign, Milei – who will take office on 10 December – vowed to abolish the central bank and dollarise the economy in order to overcome a financial calamity that has left 40% of Argentina’s 45 million citizens in poverty and pushed inflation to more than 140%. “I know how to exterminate the cancer of inflation,” Milei proclaimed during last Sunday’s final presidential debate which most pundits believed Massa had won.

BREAKING:
A Zionist won the presidential election in Argentina
"Our geopolitical alignment is with the U.S. and Israel. We are not going to align with communists" - he once said.
What will he do now?
He will inflate the US-like foreign debt to the max and seal Argentina's fate.
