Villarruel met with Bukele twice during the visit, during which the Salvadoran leader also met with Bitcoin-keen President Javier Milei.
Argentina’s Vice President Victoria Villarruel says she spoke to El Salvador President Nayib Bukele “about Bitcoin (BTC)” during the latter’s visit to Buenos Aires.
The Vice President added that the two nation’s “parliamentary friendship group” would “continue to” discuss related matters.
After her behind-closed-doors meeting with Bukele, the Argentine Vice President told news reporters she had discussed BTC adoption with the Salvadoran leader.
“We talked about Bitcoin, which is an area where El Salvador is a pioneer. We spoke about how they had implemented it. And we spoke about how they managed to attract remittances from citizens abroad that come into El Salvador.” Argentina Vice President Victoria Villarruel
