Argentine President Javier Milei issued a message this weekend welcoming New Yorkers seeking to flee Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s socialist agenda to move to his country, recalling the long immigrant-friendly history of the Argentine Republic.
Milei delivered the message while giving a speech on Sunday before attendees at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) retreat hosted by President Donald Trump’s Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago. The Argentine president made a brief visit to the United States to attend the event and the America Business Forum in Miami prior to his arrival at Mar-a-Lago; he then departed to attend the inauguration of President Rodrigo Paz in Bolivia before returning home.

Prior to his speech at CPAC, Milei had already indirectly addressed the mayoral election in New York City in his remarks to the America Business Forum, urging Americans to reject socialism and all forms of collectivism. Mayor-elect Mamdani won the election on Tuesday on a platform of dubious and expensive promises, including free public bus rides, the establishment of Venezuela-style government grocery stores, and the replacement of policing with a “Department of Community Safety” that “prevent[s] violence before it happens.”
Mamdani won against Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, who received no meaningful support from state or federal Republicans, and Andrew Cuomo, the disgraced former New York governor best known for his role in the deaths of thousands of New Yorkers during the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic and his sundry sexual misconduct allegations. President Trump endorsed Cuomo shortly before the election, taking issue with Sliwa’s preferred choice of hat.
Rather than address Mamdani’s victory, Milei addressed New Yorkers directly, offering a refuge where the leaders are implementing alternatives to Mamdani’s proposals.
“I would like to dedicate these words especially to New Yorkers, who have taken the opposite route of the one that Argentina took and will now live under a communist government,” Milei said. “Know that if things get complicated, you will always be well received on our land if you seek to prosper.”
