Javier Milei has taken a significant step in foreign policy by deepening the bilateral relationship with France. This progress was consolidated during the recent visit of the French president, Emmanuel Macron, to Buenos Aires. The visit not only strengthened ties between both countries, but also paved the way for future collaborations in various areas, including artificial intelligence (AI).
Emmanuel Macron’s visit to Argentina was an event of great diplomatic relevance. He landed at the Ezeiza Airport accompanied by his wife, Brigitte Macron, and a delegation of businessmen and members of his cabinet. The agenda of Javier Milei and Macron included a series of meetings and events aimed at strengthening bilateral ties and exploring new opportunities for cooperation.
One of the highlights of the visit was the dinner at the Olivos Presidential Residence, where both leaders shared a relaxed meal in a pleasant atmosphere. This meeting allowed both leaders to establish a framework of trust and discuss issues of common interest.
The dinner was also attended by Karina Milei, Secretary General of the Presidency, and other high-level officials. During the conversations, Milei and Macron agreed on the importance of strengthening the bilateral relationship with a focus on commercial exchange and economic cooperation.

Macron, for his part, expressed his interest in increasing French investments in Argentina, especially in strategic sectors such as lithium, energy and the automotive industry. The French firm Eramet, for example, announced an investment of 870 million dollars for a second lithium production plant in Salta.
Invitation
One of the most significant outcomes of Macron’s visit was the invitation to Milei to attend a global artificial intelligence summit to be held in February 2025 in Paris. Both presidents consider AI as a key issue for future development, although with different perspectives.
While Europe is characterized by having rigorous AI legislation, Javier Milei proposes avoiding “overregulation” to promote the development of this technology. The visit also allowed an intellectual and philosophical exchange between the two leaders, who in addition to being politicians, are economists. This dialogue enriched mutual understanding and laid the foundation for closer collaboration in the future.
