Argentina’s President Javier Milei has revealed that his government is engaged in active negotiations with the United States over a significant financial support package aimed at stabilizing the South American nation’s economy. Speaking in an interview with local radio station Mitre, Milei confirmed that the aid could take shape in three parts, including the U.S. purchasing Argentina’s debt in the secondary market and establishing a profit-sharing mechanism.
The proposed package comes as Argentina continues to battle deep economic challenges, with soaring inflation, rising debt obligations, and a struggling currency. According to Milei, discussions are still ongoing, but the U.S. is considering multiple avenues of support. Among the measures under review is a potential $20 billion swap line between the U.S. Treasury and Argentina’s central bank. This would provide Argentina with much-needed liquidity to stabilize its financial system.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent recently affirmed Washington’s commitment, noting that the United States “stands ready to do what is needed” to help Argentina regain economic stability. The proposed support could mark a turning point for Milei’s administration, which has pledged to implement sweeping free-market reforms and restore investor confidence in Argentina’s economy.
Analysts believe that U.S. backing would send a strong signal to global markets, potentially lowering borrowing costs and opening doors for new investment. A debt buyback through secondary markets could ease Argentina’s repayment pressures, while a profit-sharing arrangement would tie future returns to economic recovery, aligning both countries’ interests.
While details remain under negotiation, Milei’s confirmation highlights the strategic importance of U.S.-Argentina relations and underscores Washington’s willingness to step in at a critical time. For Argentina, securing this package could provide breathing room to advance reforms and stabilize its fragile economy, offering hope for recovery after years of financial turmoil.
