Argentina's President, Javier Milei, has slammed outside forces for spreading an 'anti-Argentina' campaign during the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The 2026 World Cup has had its fair share of controversies, both on and off the field.
But the story of Lionel Messi's potentially final World Cup has been clouded by outside political factors, with the country's President slamming the anti-Argentina movements that sparked on social media over the course of the World Cup.
In an interview with local Radio Mitre, Milei slammed the 'anti-Argentina' campaign at the 2026 World Cup, alleging that 25% of it had been funded by the Brazilian government, with U.S. Democrats and Mexico also playing a role.
"Who put the most money into this anti-Argentina campaign? The Brazilian government. Twenty-five percent of the funding came from the Brazilian government. And then they lecture me about interference."
