I lived in Argentina in the mid-1980s, just after the fall of the brutal military dictatorship that ruled from 1976 to 1983. The country was taking its first, shaky steps back toward democracy. It was a time of great hope, but also of grave uncertainty - because while the generals were gone, the political culture that enabled them remained.

Argentina's bonds, stocks and currency are surging after President Javier Milei's party won an overwhelming victory in a Sunday midterm election, a key requisite to keep economic reforms on track and a United States financial backstop in place. On Monday, international bonds rallied between 9 and 13 cents each, local stocks jumped over 20 percent and the peso strengthened some 6 percent to the dollar, halving its initial rally.

Trump sees Milei as Uncle Sam's man in Latin America-the man who will lead the charge against the " pink tide " of leftist Latin American governments and counter the commercial and geopolitical inroads made by China in the region.
On Friday, Argentina's government announced that the ChatGPT maker had entered into an agreement with Sur Energy for a large-scale data center in the Patagonia region.
