Milei pushes for deeper Mercosur opening, threatens exit if bloc stalls

Argentine President Javier Milei and his economic team are advocating for a more aggressive liberalization of Mercosur, framing it as an 'atomic torpedo' to accelerate economic opening. Milei warns that if the bloc does not move toward greater openness, Argentina may consider leaving. This signals a potential shift in regional trade dynamics, though the feasibility and immediate impact remain uncertain.
