Argentinians Await Change of Government Amid Economic and Social Turmoil BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA - NOVEMBER 30: A Javier Milei picture is seen on a campaign sign on November 30, 2023 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. President-elect Javier Milei of La Libertad Avanza will take office on Sunday 10, replacing incumbent peronist Alberto Fernandez. Milei is a self-described "anarcho-capitalist" libertarian who wants to sharply reduce the size of the State and replace the local peso with the American dollar. During the campaign, he promised to uproot Argentina's political establishment and to align the economy with dramatic measures such as closing the Central Bank. After defeating the current Minister of Economy Sergio Massa in the run-off with 55,65% of the votes, the president-elect has shown moderation and pragmatism as he works on the line up of his cabinet. The new administration will face the challenge to reduce the country's 140% annual inflation and its 44,7% of poverty, as recently announced by a study carried out by ODSA-UCA.
