Milei and Meloni Meet: Argentina's Vaca Muerta Gas Deal with Italy
President Milei's Italy Trip Yields Potential Gas Deal with Meloni Argentine President Javier Milei's visit to Italy is focused on securing a major energy deal. His meeting with Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni aims to finalize a memorandum of understanding between YPF and ENI, paving the way for substantial exports of Vaca Muerta natural gas to Italy. The agreement is expected to involve the export of six million tons of LNG annually. This deal is expected to boost Argentina's economy and strengthen its international partnerships. The video shows footage of the meeting and includes a reporter's commentary on the significance of the agreement. "This is a very important meeting," said the C5N reporter, "because it could lead to a preliminary agreement to export gas from Vaca Muerta for 100 million dollars over 20 years." The successful conclusion of this deal would mark a significant achievement for Argentina, demonstrating its growing role in the global energy market. The planned installation of two LNG vessels on the Rio Negro coast further highlights the scale and long-term implications of this agreement.
