The Minister of Economy, Luis Caputoand the president of Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA), Santiago Bausilithey will return on Friday to Buenos Aires after an intense six-day agenda in Washington where the details of the bailout that the government of donald trump to the Argentina, knew Scope.
The economic team will leave the United States tonight amid total secrecy about the details of the aid that the White House promised to the government of Javier Milei and when the Treasury’s firepower to keep the dollar contained in the Argentine exchange market reached its limit.
The details are expected to be announced Tuesday at the state meeting that Trump and Milei will hold in Washington. Caputo will accompany the President on that trip, as will Bausili, who will also participate in the annual meeting of the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Last week, the US Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessentanticipated a swap line for US$20,000 million for Argentina. Then, the president of the IMF, Kristalina Georgievaadded that the organization was in contact with the United States for assistance to the Milei government. Finally, the option being used is a swap with Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) provided by Washington.
This instrument would not only alleviate the immediate shortage of dollars for the libertarian Government, but would reconfigure the panorama of macroeconomic stability in a context of growing exchange tensions, the Executive points out.
The expectation for the final announcement of the bailout dominated the last four exchange rounds in the Argentine market, where the Treasury has barely US$300 million to keep the official dollar below the ceiling of the floating band.
However, everything indicates that the details will only be known on Tuesday when Trump receives Milei at the White House, who will be accommodated, along with the official delegation, in Blair Housethe residence intended for heads of state visiting Washington, in another sign of the strategic alliance between the two administrations.
