Ministry of Foreign Affairs 20 November 2023
Liberland sent congratulations to Javier Milei after he won the third round of the Argentine presidential election. Milei is an economist, Deputy in the National Congress of Argentina, and prominent television commentator on issues of the day. He rose to fame with his sharp critiques of establishment politicians and socialist policies.
After suffering decades of economic mismanagement and severe inflation, Argentine voters made a decisive move to change the status quo with 55.8% of voters choosing Milei. This historic win indicates a sea change in Argentine politics, and will surely have a ripple effect, not only in Latin America, but in other countries.
Liberland hopes for ties with incoming administration
“The pendulum of liberty is swinging, so I want to send big congratulations to the Argentinian people. They took a great step in choosing Javier Milei,” said Liberland President Vit Jedlicka. “And congratulations to Javier Milei. I’m looking for long-lasting and great relations between our two countries.”

“I am eager to develop diplomatic relations between Liberland and Argentina,” said Liberland Foreign Minister Thomas Walls. “We are truly delighted with the results of the election. You know we look forward to the day when we inaugurate the Argentine Embassy in Liberland.”
Recently, the Liberland delegation met in Buenos Aires with Milei’s political party, the Partido Libertario. The agreement affirms the shared commitment to the principles of liberty and to cooperate in several areas, including international relations.
Milei has publicly mentioned and described Liberland several times. In a recent radio interview, Milei told the host that “there is already a country based on the libertarian model and it is called Liberland. Taxes are zero and you only participate in political life in Liberland if you make voluntary contributions. How does that grab you?”
In 2019, Milei appeared in costume at a cosplay convention as "General AnCap" in a mask and yellow-and-black superhero outfit, stating "I come from Liberland... a land of seven square kilometers between Croatia and Serbia. A country where you don’t pay taxes, a country where we defend individual freedom, and where we believe in the individual. And there is no place for collectivist sons of bitches who want to screw up our lives."
