Argentine President Milei considers leaving Mercosur to strike a US trade deal, risking bloc relations.

Argentine President Javier Milei is willing to leave the Mercosur trade bloc to secure a trade deal with the US, though he hopes to do so without leaving the bloc. Mercosur includes Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay and recently agreed on a free-trade deal with the EU. Milei's decision could strain relations within Mercosur but reflects his administration's interest in diversifying trade partnerships.
