Caputo had served as the minister of economy from 2017 to 2018 and the president of the Central Bank of Argentina in 2018.

Argentina's president-elect Javier Milei was traveling Sunday to the United States to meet with US and international officials over two days.

The imminent end of the agreement on price controls is fanning inflation even more, says economist Hernan Letcher

A showman, like Trump, Milei first grabbed public attention via appearances as a television panelist, where he would rant about the government's failures, with little concern for political correctness.

Throughout his campaign, Javier Milei had slammed the Chinese government, comparing it to an "assassin."

The victory of the 53-year-old ultra-liberal economist in the Argentinian presidential elections on Sunday was like a tsunami in a country that has a complicated relationship with the IMF, to which it has turned more than 20 times in search of financial assistance since 1956.

The dire state of the economy is the main concern of voters weary of repeated fiscal crises, inflation and currency controls.

Without proof, or any complaints filed, claims of electoral fraud have been shared tens, sometimes hundreds of thousands of times on social media accounts backing Argentina's ultra-libertarian presidential candidate Javier Milei.

In Argentina, where women have made some recent gains but are still fighting for full equal rights, anti-establishment presidential candidate Javier Milei has divided the electorate with an unashamedly machismo stance.
