Javier Milei called Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez an "impresentable dictator" during a speech at the Nueva Economía Fórum in Madrid on Wednesday.
Milei urged Spain to remove socialists from power "by kicking them out" and linked Sánchez's government to kirchnerismo, which he described as twenty-first-century socialism.
“So yes, I am left-wing and with great honor.”
Sánchez responded later that day, stating he is left-wing "with great honor" and listing policies such as pension and minimum wage increases, expanded parental leave, abortion rights, and opposition to war.
The PSOE welcomed Milei to Spain with a large banner at its Ferraz headquarters reading that left-wing men and women welcome him to the country that grows the most in Europe.
The banner also included a graphic reference to the chainsaw, a symbol associated with Milei's political career.
