00:02 Former US President Donald Trump congratulated Javier Mele, a libertarian politician who
00:07 was elected as president of Argentina on his election win.
00:11 Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform saying "The whole world was watching.
00:15 I am very proud of you.
00:17 You will turn your country around and truly make Argentina great again."
00:21 Mele is considered an outsider with radical views to fix Argentina's economy.
00:25 Mele defeated the incumbent center-left Peronist coalition in the presidential elections and
00:30 will face the challenge of taming high inflation and turning around Argentina's struggling
00:34 economy during his presidency.
