Argentina’s President Javier Milei met Pope Leo at the Vatican, confirming the pontiff’s upcoming visit to Argentina.

During his first official audience with Pope Leo at the Vatican, Argentine President Javier Milei received confirmation that the pope will visit Argentina, possibly as early as next year. The visit is expected to include stops in Uruguay and Peru. The meeting marked a potential new chapter in relations after Milei’s tense history with former Pope Francis.

Discussions were described as cordial, focusing on shared goals such as socioeconomic progress, poverty reduction, social cohesion, and ongoing global conflicts. Milei also met Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in Rome, coinciding with a new energy agreement between Italian company Eni and Argentina’s YPF.
