However, in an interview with Futurock radio station on Sunday, Argentine President Alberto Fernández suggested that won’t be the case. “We want to sign it because we think that an agreement between the EU and Argentina is correct in geopolitical terms,” the president said. President-elect Javier Milei’s administration is expected to support the deal with the EU, although he has criticized it in the past. “We would be grateful if outgoing president Alberto Fernández could finish the deal between Mercosur and the European Union,” she said. “The outgoing government clearly did not want to give Milei a free pass,” a senior diplomat with knowledge of the negotiations told Reuters.
