BUENOS AIRES (Reuters) - Argentina's libertarian President Javier Milei, increasingly a poster child for rightwing politics and free-markets, is hosting allies of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and Brazil's Jair Bolsonaro at a summit in Buenos Aires on Wednesday.

Buoyed by the election win of ideological ally Trump, Milei is kicking off the Conservative Action Political Conference at which Bolsonaro and Trump's daughter-in-law Lara Trump are expected to speak, the former via video.
