Milei talks to Abascal and tells him that there is nothing more fun than "kicking leftist asses"

During a visit to Madrid, Spain, on Wednesday, October 21, Argentine President Javier Milei engaged in a videollamada with Santiago Abascal, the leader of the Spanish far-right party Vox. During the call, Milei told Abascal that "there is nothing more fun than kicking left-wing asses," a remark made in reference to his verbal attacks on political opponents. Abascal expressed approval of Milei's actions during the visit, specifically praising remarks directed at Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, whom Milei had accused of being a "dictator" and a "thief."

In addition to his interactions with political figures, Milei's visit drew institutional condemnation. The Federation of Associations of Journalists of Spain (FAPE) formally condemned the Argentine president's attitude and actions during the trip, citing his use of "insults and personal attacks" directed at Spanish journalists who posed questions to him.
