Elon Musk Set a New Profile Picture on X With the Chainsaw That Milei Gave Him.

This gift was given by President Milei as a symbol of his state reduction policies.

In his first official activity in the United States, Argentine President Javier Milei met with Elon Musk, the influential CEO of Tesla and leader of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in Donald Trump's administration, at an exclusive five-star hotel in Maryland.

The meeting, which began after 3:15 PM, aimed to analyze the international landscape and the investment opportunities for the United States in Argentina, in an encounter that stood out both for its content and the symbols surrounding it.

Almost four hours after the meeting began, the official X account of the President's Office released an image of the event's protagonists, in which Musk, one of Trump's influential advisors, is seen holding a real chainsaw.

However, what really caught attention was that, in a public gesture that emphasizes the closeness between the two, Elon Musk decided to change his profile picture on his social network X, posting a new image in which he is seen with the chainsaw, reflecting the personal and political relationship between the two world leaders.

Musk's arrival at the imposing hotel, located on the National Harbor in Maryland, was kept strictly secret, a detail that highlights the importance of the meeting.

He was received by Milei, joined by his sister Karina Milei, Secretary General of the Presidency; Luis "Toto" Caputo, Minister of Economy; Gerardo Werthein, Chancellor; and Manuel Adorni, Presidential Spokesperson.

The conclave between the two leaders was described as an open-agenda conversation, indicating the flexibility and pragmatic approach with which Milei and Musk addressed the topics discussed.

According to a member of the official delegation, "they are two friends meeting in Washington", highlighting the level of camaraderie and mutual trust between them.

Musk, known for his closeness to Trump, has notable influence in American power circles, and his words can have a direct impact on decisions made in the Oval Office, which could be a determining factor for future relations between Argentina and the United States.
