Brazil-Argentina diplomatic friction escalates following ministerial verbal attack on Milei

Brazil's Deputy Finance Minister Dario Durigan publicly insulted Argentine President Javier Milei, citing Argentina's macroeconomic instability as a rebuttal to Milei's criticisms of the Lula administration. This rhetoric marks a significant deterioration in bilateral relations between the two largest South American economies, signaling a shift toward open hostility between the respective executive branches.
