BUENOS AIRES, Sept 20 (Reuters) - Argentina's President

Javier Milei will meet Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Monday

while in New York City for the annual United Nations General

Assembly session, his spokesperson Manuel Adorni said in a press

conference on Friday.

The tech billionaire and libertarian president met earlier

this year in Texas, promising to work together to promote free

markets as well as potential lithium projects.

The Argentine leader's trip will also include meetings with

Ecuadorean President Daniel Naboa, EU Commission President

Ursula von der Leyen, and Google's head of government

affairs and public policy, Karen Bhatia.

Milei will on Tuesday address the UN General Assembly

for the first time as president since taking office last

December.

Musk has showed his admiration for Milei's embrace of

private enterprise and the president's disdain for what he sees

as socialist excesses.
