Argentinian president Javier Milei belts out rock song at book launch

Argentinian president Javier Milei looked more like a rock star than a politician on stage, as he sings his version of the song Panic Show, by band La Renga, ahead of the launch of his latest book.

Supporters enjoyed the 'fiesta of freedom' but critics have called it an attempt to distract from economic woes exacerbated by Milei’s austerity drive. Poverty and unemployment are growing in Argentina, which has one of the world’s highest inflation rates.
