BUENOS AIRES, Oct 30 (Reuters) - Argentina’s President Javier Milei on Wednesday replaced Foreign Affairs Minister Diana Mondino after she voted in favor of lifting the U.S. embargo against Cuba at the United Nations.
Milei, a libertarian who took office in late 2023, is unabashedly pro-United States and has taken a cooler stance toward leftist trade partners in the region and overseas, including by taking steps to distance Argentina from Cuba and Venezuela.
Earlier on Wednesday, the U.N. General Assembly overwhelmingly called on the United States to end its decades-long sanctions regime on Cuba, in a non-binding resolution opposed only by the U.S. and Israel.
Milei, who has said that he wants Argentina to be in line with the U.S. and Israel, shared a post on social media from a lower house lawmaker praising his government for “not supporting nor being an accomplice of dictators.”
Captain AnCap continues to be a clown.
Free market trade! Except Cuba, they don’t get to trade.
Communists must be punished for overthrowing the fascist slaver regime that brought immense profits to the Imperialists, of course!
Yes. They should have voted the dictator puppet out. That’s how we got rid of Hitler and Mussolini, and besides, their close neighbors are all democracies who would never interfere in any other country’s elections. Fruit companies aren’t that important, you know.
