lithium or oil?

Of course Trump will want something in return. Probably US military bases in Argentina, oil, lithium and other things. Poor farmers in the USA that probably voted for Trump and he has screwed them over with his nonsense.

 

[oil rush]

Nothing is free for Argentina. The USA will get their money's worth when the time comes. But not if Milei's party doesn't make it. SOS effort to save their party or it will be lights out.

Just read this in the NYT. Argentina for the win with the Chinese.

Soybeans Were America’s Biggest Export to China. Now, Sales Are Down to Zero.

China stopped buying soybeans from America in May, placing a retaliatory tariff on the bumper crop after President Trump increased levies on goods from China.

Exclusive: China buys Argentine soybeans after tax drop, leaving US farmers sidelined

Chinese buyers booked at least 10 cargoes of Argentine soybeans after Buenos Aires scrapped grain export taxes, three traders said on Tuesday, dealing another setback to U.S. farmers already shut out of their top market and hit by low prices.

I wouldn't mind an American presence in Argentina. It will further tie the two countries. But the tough thing is that if there is regime change it won't happen. Trump is doing all he can to keep Milei in power.

Talk about election meddling. Very good article.

US bankrolls fascist Milei regime ahead of Argentine elections

The announced Argentine peso swap and other giveaways by the US Treasury constitute a brazen act of election meddling to prop up a regime whose popular support is collapsing ahead of October’s legislative elections.

It sounds like China is getting the best out of this but I don't blame them for buying soybeans from Argentina. Trump has only himself to blame with all the import taxes on the farmers.

Right I am sure the USA would love to have a base in the southern part of Argentina. And doubt once they install it, they will ever leave.

But if Milei isn't successful in the mid-term elections I doubt the USA will pump money into Argentina will they? This article mentions the same thing.

Democrats are totally against a bail out of Argentina. Schumer today was talking about how the USA is broke but they are "bailing out Argentina". Does not bode well for Argentina.
