Argentine President Milei arrives in Oslo in YPF jumpsuit for Nobel Peace Prize

President Javier Milei arrived in Oslo, Norway, this Tuesday to participate in the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony for Venezuelan opposition leader Corina Machado. The president's choice of attire was surprising: instead of formal wear, he appeared in a YPF jumpsuit. This decision was even praised by deputy for La Libertad Avanza (LLA), Damian Arabia. Arabia posted on social media: 'Talk to me about how to promote investments and promote Argentina in the world in disruptive and innovative ways.' Machado will receive the international award on Wednesday at 9:00 a.m. The ceremony will be attended by three other Latin American heads of state: the presidents of Paraguay, Santiago Peña; of Panama, José Raúl Mulino; and of Ecuador, Daniel Noboa. Milei had received a personal invitation from Machado. On Wednesday at 9:00 a.m., the Nobel Peace Prize award ceremony will take place at Oslo City Hall, after which the Argentine president will meet at 11:30 a.m. with King Harald V of Norway and at 1:10 p.m. with the country's Prime Minister, Jonas Gahr Støre. After this tight schedule, Milei will board the plane that will bring him back to Buenos Aires on a special flight at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, arriving in the country at 9:30 a.m. on Thursday. This October, Machado was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her 'tireless work in favor of the democratic rights of the Venezuelan people and for her struggle.' The leader of Vente Venezuela stated that she 'lives in clandestinity within her country' and faces constant threats from the Maduro government. The Nobel Prize award ceremony, held since 1990, will be broadcast live on several virtual platforms. 'Javier arrived in Oslo with the YPF jumpsuit.'
