Gerardo Werthein, the new chancellor of Argentina, recently met with the president Javier Milei at Quinta de Olivos to discuss the urgent challenges he will face in his new role. Werthein, who until recently served as Argentine ambassador in Washington, has assumed the position of Minister of Foreign Affairs and Worship at a critical moment for the country’s foreign policy.
The meeting with Javier Milei was key to outlining the priorities and strategies that will guide its management. One of the main topics discussed at the meeting was the presidential election in the United States, which will take place in the coming days.
The election between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris has the potential to change the world order, and Werthein, with his experience in Washington, is well positioned to manage bilateral relations with the world’s leading power.
The election of a new ambassador to the United States was also a central topic at the meeting, since this position is considered key to the diplomatic management of the Milei government. Another urgent challenge is Argentina’s participation in the G20 summit, which will be held in Rio de Janeiro on November 18 and 19.
This summit is a crucial opportunity for Argentina to advance the Mercosur-European Union agreement and strengthen its relations with other G20 member countries. Werthein will accompany Milei at this event, where both leaders are expected to present an ambitious agenda and seek to consolidate strategic alliances.
The official visit of French President Emmanuel Macron to Buenos Aires is another of the immediate challenges that Werthein will have to manage. Macron will arrive in Argentina before the G20 summit, and his visit is seen as an opportunity to strengthen bilateral relations between both countries.
Meetings
The meeting with Macron was managed by Karina, sister of Javier Mileiwho has played an important role in Argentine diplomacy. During the visit, issues of mutual interest, such as trade, investment and cooperation in key areas, are expected to be discussed.
In addition to Macron, Werthein must also prepare the visit of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, who will arrive in Buenos Aires shortly after the G20 summit. This visit is an opportunity to strengthen ties with Italy and explore new areas of cooperation.
