U.S. Aid to Argentina Tied to Milei’s Political Future, Trump Warns

U.S. President Donald Trump points a finger as he welcomes Argentina's President Javier Milei at the White House in Washington, D.C., U.S., October 14, 2025. 

In a striking declaration during a White House meeting with Argentine President Javier Milei, U.S. President Donald Trump linked Washington’s financial support for Argentina to Milei’s political survival. Just days after approving a $20 billion bailout package, Trump stated bluntly: “If he loses, we’re gone.”

The warning came as Argentina prepares for crucial midterm legislative elections. Trump emphasized that U.S. backing hinges on Milei’s libertarian government maintaining power, saying his administration would not “waste time” if Milei’s party fails to secure victory.

The remarks rattled Argentine markets, which had initially responded positively to the bailout deal. The package, centered on a major currency swap between the U.S. dollar and the Argentine peso, was seen as a lifeline for the country’s struggling economy.

Trump’s intervention underscores the high stakes of Argentina’s upcoming elections and highlights Washington’s willingness to condition international support on political alignment. For Milei, the message was clear: his government’s future—and Argentina’s economic stability—are now deeply intertwined with U.S. expectations.
