Photo: - / Argentinian Presidency/AFPSource: AFPArgentina's self-styled "anarcho-capitalist" leader, Javier Milei, will address the global elite in Davos on Wednesday as the eccentric libertarian seeks to restore confidence in his country's economy in his first trip abroad as president. Milei, who has drawn comparisons to former US president Donald Trump, said he would tell Davos that "freedom is the key to prosperity". But the ultra-liberal economist said he had received more than 60 requests for face-to-face meetings in Davos. Alejandro Frankel, an international politics professor at the San Martin National University in Argentina, said Milei will seek to "gain the trust of the international economic establishment" in Davos.
