Javier Milei was sworn in as president of Argentina on Sunday. Breaking with tradition, the economist—and self-described anarcho-capitalist—delivered his inaugural address to thousands of his followers gathered outside, his back conspicuously turned away from the legislature.
"Today begins a new era in Argentina," he said, promising a new era of liberty and progress. "Today we end a long and sad history of decadence and decline and begin the road to the reconstruction of our country."
