Kremlin says it noted Argentina President-elect Milei's comments on Russia, but hopes for good ties

The Kremlin said on Monday it had taken note of statements about Russia from Argentina's President-elect Javier Milei, but wanted to maintain strong ties with Buenos Aires.

Milei, a right-wing libertarian, has previously said he would not deepen Argentina's warm relations with Russia, and has instead struck pro-U.S. and pro-Ukrainian positions.
