Buenos Aires, Apr 12 (AP) Argentine President Javier Milei's economy minister has announced that the libertarian government would lift the country's strict capital and currency controls in a few days, a high-stakes gamble made possible by a new loan from the International Monetary Fund. In a nationally televised address on Friday, Economy Minister Luis Caputo also said the IMF's executive board had decided to approve the $20 billion bailout package announced earlier this week, which offers a lifeline to Argentina's dangerously depleting foreign currency reserves.
