Argentina and U.S. Sign Free Trade Agreement, Strengthening Economic Ties
Argentina and the United States have signed a comprehensive free trade agreement, marking a significant development in bilateral relations. The deal, announced by Argentine Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno, aims to open Argentina's economy by easing restrictions on American imports such as cattle, dairy products, and machinery. In return, the U.S. will remove tariffs on certain Argentine natural resources and pharmaceutical ingredients. This agreement is part of a broader U.S. strategy to enhance trade relations with Latin American countries, aligning with President Trump's economic policies. The deal reflects the close alliance between Argentine President Javier Milei and President Trump, with Milei's economic reforms receiving U.S. support.
