Buenos Aires, April 4 (NA) — The prestigious American newspaper The Washington Post highlighted Argentina's shift toward a free-market economy, emphasizing that reforms driven by President Javier Milei are 'defying the doomsayers' with a drastic improvement in social indicators. According to the Argentine News Agency (NA), the publication noted that the poverty rate fell to 28% by the end of 2025, after peaking at 53% in the middle of the previous year. The analysis by the U.S. newspaper described the administration's policies as a 'radical experiment' that is proving to yield tangible results. Furthermore, it places special emphasis on the collapse of inflation, which dropped from 200% annually at the start of the term to 33% last February, and celebrates the achievement of the first fiscal surplus in over a century through subsidy cuts and the reduction of the state apparatus. The Washington Post article also highlights the 4.4% growth recorded in the last year and the favorable IMF projections for 2026 and 2027.
