News brief
The legislative elections are seen as make-or-break for President Javier Milei鈥檚 libertarian revolution. The iconoclastic economist took office two years ago promising to take a chainsaw to a bloated welfare system and runaway inflation, but even he admits he鈥檚 only been partially successful and needs a friendlier Congress to finish the job. The campaign has been marked by President Trump鈥檚 $40 billion rescue plan for the teetering currency 鈥 and his vow to withdraw support if Mr. Milei loses.
