Javier Milei Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
I am Javier Milei, and the past few days have been a whirlwind of change and headline-making moments on both the political and cultural stage. Following the unexpectedly strong performance by my party La Libertad Avanza in Argentina’s October 26 midterm elections, where we secured 40 percent of the vote, I took a definitive turn toward consensus-building, inviting dozens of provincial governors and political factions—excluding some Peronist hardliners—to a dialogue on driving reforms. El País describes how, under intense pressure from the United States after a multi-billion dollar bailout, I rebranded myself from “lion” to consensus-seeking leader, though skepticism persists about the sincerity and durability of this new approach.
Cabinet turbulence marked this moment, as my chief negotiator Guillermo Francos resigned, joined by Interior Minister Lisandro Catalán and, prior to the elections, Foreign Minister Gerardo Werthein. These departures signaled internal power shifts, especially with Manuel Adorni becoming chief of staff, and my closest advisors Karina Milei and Santiago Caputo consolidating influence.
Throughout this period, economic stabilization remained my focus. I confirmed at a New York business event with top executives from Pfizer, FedEx, and Morgan Stanley, as reported by MercoPress, that Argentina’s reforms are real and ongoing. I emphasized investment incentives, outlined labor and tax reforms, and rolled out the Regime of Incentives for Large Investments to attract capital. As UPI and C5N have noted, privatization of major state assets—including highways and hydroelectric dams—is moving quickly. Market watchers see this as the most aggressive transformation agenda since Carlos Menem, and I am determined to finalize key bids within weeks.
On social media, my image soared after the legislative elections, with a recent post-election analysis capturing a 63 percent positive rating among users according to DerechaDiario. Yet, my penchant for flamboyant online behavior surfaced when I shared—then deleted—a celebratory post about an alleged invitation to sing with AC/DC; news outlets like Clarin later revealed the story as fake.
The world noticed my presence at the CPAC Circle Retreat at Mar-a-Lago, where, as CPAC spotlighted, I championed economic freedom and the dismantling of bureaucracy. In Miami, my praise for Lionel Messi at the America Business Forum—playfully calling him “a leftie”—sparked a frenzy across social channels, as covered by Hindustan Times. All the while, Donald Trump hailed my victory, taking to Truth Social to declare his confidence in my leadership, though some headlines caution that my support is not as overwhelming as it seems.
On policy, I confirmed via GZERO Media that the peso will not be floated just yet, opting instead to manage reserves for stability—a bold stance that runs counter to investor expectations and reflects the delicate nature of Argentina’s current recovery.
