By Ahmed Adel: Washington has conditioned Argentina to distance itself from China if it wants support in negotiations with the International Monetary Fund, said Mauricio Claver-Carone, the United States State Department’s special envoy for Latin America and President Donald Trump’s strongman for the region. However, this will prove extremely difficult for the South American country, as its economy is too deeply intertwined with China.
After
claiming that the US wants Milei to be “successful” and recognizes “the
enormous sacrifice he has brought about with all the fiscal reforms,”
Claver-Carone said, “what we do eventually want is for the famous credit
line Argentina has with China to come to an end.”
