At the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) 2024, held in February, Argentine President Javier Milei and El Salvador President Nayib Bukele delivered significant speeches. Milei, known for his right-wing populist stance, met with Donald Trump, expressing mutual admiration and echoing Trump's 'Make America Great Again' slogan with his own 'Make Argentina Great Again'. This meeting came shortly after Milei's engagements with Biden administration officials in Buenos Aires, highlighting a diplomatic outreach to both major US political factions. Bukele's speech at CPAC focused on urging Americans to "unapologetically fight" against globalist elites, a message that resonates with the conference's conservative audience. Milei's appearance at CPAC was noted as surprising by some, given his outreach efforts to both US political parties, and his speech at the conference was described as a professorial lecture on economics, diverging from the typical election-campaign rhetoric.

Instead of judging @JMilei by his ideas and actions, many “idea salesmen” in the U.S. and beyond try to create a Milei to the liking of their donors. This is a post by the Argentine president. He gave a lecture more than a speech breaking stereotypes. I wish him well! @lhfang https://t.co/xL66kmkhoQ

Javier Milei’s acceptance of an invitation to speak at CPAC was “surprising,” I told the @BAHeraldcom. Outreach to both parties is important, but “it is not in Argentina’s interest to alienate the US leadership.” https://t.co/CMRW5qmgnc
