Argentina’s Milei Laments LIBRA Scandal After Judge Dismisses Criminal Probe

The dismissal shifts the LIBRA affair from a legal question to a political one, and Milei is already framing the outcome as vindication rather than closure. That matters for how Argentina's government handles scrutiny of crypto-adjacent ventures, and for opponents who now face his counter-accusations of extortion over tax liabilities. Whether the judicial ruling ends the political fight or merely relocates it is the open question, and the compensation demand signals Milei intends to keep the episode alive rather than let it fade.
