Milei Cancels This Week’s U.S. Trip, Will Address Mar-a-Lago Gala Online After Feb. 19 Peace Board Invite

The shift signals a choice to keep focus on a packed congressional week at home.

Overview

  • The presidency said Milei suspended the in-person visit planned for Monday and will participate virtually in the Florida gala.
  • The change follows a formal invitation to the inaugural Board of Peace meeting on February 19 in Washington, where he is expected to attend.
  • Minister Federico Sturzenegger will handle the on-the-ground agenda this week, including meetings with investors and technical organizations.
  • Officials point to an intense domestic schedule that includes a Senate vote on labor reform and a lower-house push to reduce the age of criminal responsibility.
  • Argentina is a founding member of the Trump-promoted Board of Peace, initially focused on Gaza reconstruction, after Milei signed the founding letter in Davos.
