At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Argentine President Javier Gerardo Milei, an ardent advocate of anarcho-capitalism, issued a passionate appeal to global leaders, urging them to steer clear of socialism. In his first appearance on the international stage since taking office, he emphasized the urgency of embracing free-market capitalism to eradicate global poverty.

Milei’s speech was a clear call to action. “Today, I am here to tell you that the Western world is in danger,” he stated, warning that the growing inclination towards socialism among Western leaders poses a threat. He believes this is a path that inevitably leads to poverty, challenging the core values represented by the West.

Milei is known for his right-wing, anarcho-capitalist stance and is often compared to former US President Donald Trump. He used his journey to Davos as a platform to advocate for freedom. According to Reuters, he traveled on a commercial flight and criticized the socialism embraced by the Davos elite, warning of the potential hardships it could bring.

Supplement: Klaus Schwab, the founder of the WEF, is considered to have socialist objectives due to his advocacy of the “Great Reset.”

Elon Musk seems to appreciate Milei’s remarks:

This year’s World Economic Forum focuses on “rebuilding trust” and promoting open dialogue between policymakers, business leaders, and civil society. WEF founder Klaus Schwab introduced Milei, highlighting how his radical approach has brought refreshing change to Argentina.

Milei warns against abandoning freedom in pursuit of a collectivist model, drawing on Argentina’s experience to emphasize his point: “Collectivist experiments have never been the solution,” he insists, emphasizing the need to learn from these historical mistakes. “Believe me, no one is better equipped to prove this than us Argentines,” he declares.

Milei faces immense challenges. As the third-largest economy in Latin America, Argentina is in a severe crisis. With an inflation rate exceeding 211% and 40% of the population affected by poverty, Milei’s proposed “shock therapy” appears more critical than ever. His controversial solutions include dollarizing the economy, dissolving the central bank, and privatizing the pension system, aiming to stabilize the country’s precarious fiscal situation.
