Argentine President Javier Milei joined the campaign ahead of Spain's parliamentary elections in Madrid on Wednesday. He called Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez a dictator and a thief. At the same time, he urged Spanish voters to remove the Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) from power in the upcoming elections. STVR (Minúta po minúte) ↗
Milei spoke at an event connected with supporting the Spanish right. In his speech, he criticized the socialist government and claimed that Spaniards are suffering under its leadership. According to media reports, he urged voters to "kick out" the socialists from government. idnes.cz ↗
Spain's parliamentary elections are set to take place in just under six weeks. Milei's appearance thus represents a direct involvement of a foreign president in the country's pre-election campaign, in which he has long supported representatives of the right and the far right. Le Monde ↗
Relations between Milei and Sánchez are tense. The Argentine president has visited Spain several times since taking office in 2023, and during these visits he has repeatedly appeared alongside representatives of the Spanish right. His latest remarks have once again deepened the public conflict with the socialist government. El Mundo ↗
Sánchez's government has not yet responded to Milei's speech. Further developments will depend mainly on whether the dispute carries over into the pre-election debate and into relations between Madrid and Buenos Aires.
