Javier Milei
Presidential candidate of the Liberty Advances coalition Javier Milei arrives to vote in the presidential runoff election in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Sunday, Nov. 19, 2023.
  • A self-described "anarcho-capitalist" candidate often compared to Donald Trump claimed victory in Argentina's presidential election. 
  • Javier Milei's win comes as his opponent, Argentina's Economy Minister Sergio Massa, conceded defeat.
  • With a Milei victory, the country will swing to the right amid discontent over soaring inflation and rising poverty.

Argentina's Economy Minister Sergio Massa conceded defeat to populist Javier Milei in Sunday's fiercely polarized presidential runoff even before the country's electoral authority released official results.
