APART from president-elect Javier Milei, perhaps the happiest man in Argentina is US ambassador Marc Stanley who was quick to congratulate the far-right, self-styled libertarian on his stunning election victory on November 19.
In a tweet, he said that he hoped that their two nations could work together for the benefit of both countries, including in the protection of human rights, democracy and the fight against climate change, none of which are of the slightest interest to either of them.
