President Javier Milei held a private meeting in Paris with the 13 governors participating in Argentina Week, the initiative aimed at promoting the country in the European market and attracting new investments. The meeting had a strong focus on the economy and took place in an atmosphere of camaraderie and closeness between the head of state and the provincial leaders.
A meeting focused on the economy
During the meeting, Milei referred to the country's economic situation and reviewed the main variables and indicators with the governors. The President's presentation occurred in a context where Argentina seeks to present itself to Europe as a reliable destination for capital, with the provinces as key players in that strategy.
Who participated in the meeting with Milei
The photo in Paris brought together a broad representation of the federal map. The meeting included Rolando Figueroa (Neuquén), Ignacio Torres (Chubut), Alberto Weretilneck (Río Negro), Alfredo Cornejo (Mendoza), Rogelio Frigerio (Entre Ríos), Gustavo Sáenz (Salta), Juan Pablo Valdés (Corrientes), Leandro Zdero (Chaco), Carlos Sadir (Jujuy), Claudio Vidal (Santa Cruz), Marcelo Orrego (San Juan), Raúl Jalil (Catamarca), and Jorge Macri (Autonomous City of Buenos Aires). The vice governor of Córdoba, Myrian Prunotto, was also present.
The presence of governors from different regions—from Patagonia to NOA, passing through Cuyo, the Litoral, and the City of Buenos Aires—reinforces the image of a country that is presenting itself in a coordinated manner to international investors.
The federal perspective of the Government
Milei thanked the provincial leaders for their presence and emphasized that his Government has a true federal perspective. The message aims to consolidate a common agenda between the Nation and the provinces, where the growth of the interior appears as a central piece of the economic project.
Energy, mining, and agribusiness: the strategic sectors
In his speech, the President highlighted the development of strategic sectors such as energy, mining, and agribusiness, among others, whose main development is concentrated in the interior of the country. These are precisely the areas with the greatest potential to attract European investments and generate foreign currency, and in which the provinces represented in Paris play a leading role.
The national delegation that accompanied Milei
The President was accompanied by the Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei; the Chief of Cabinet of Ministers, Diego Santilli; and the ministers Luis Caputo (Economy), Pablo Quirno (Foreign Affairs), Federico Sturzenegger (Deregulation), Mario Lugones (Health), and Juan Bautista Mahiques (Justice). The presence of the core cabinet underscores the importance the Government assigns to the European tour.
Argentina Week: the showcase to attract European investments
Argentina Week in Paris serves as a platform to present the country's business opportunities to entrepreneurs and investors from the Old Continent. With the President, his economic team, and more than a dozen governors at the same table, the Government seeks to send a signal of predictability and federal unity to international markets.
