Milei government authorizes sale of Telefónica's Argentine subsidiary

The government of Javier Milei approved the sale of Telefónica's Argentine subsidiary to Telecom Argentina, but with conditions requiring divestments. The approval comes amid a prolonged political dispute over market concentration in telecommunications. Milei has previously criticized Grupo Clarín, a major shareholder in Telecom, accusing it of seeking dominance in the sector through the acquisition. Telecom has described the government's requirements as excessive. The sale was initially blocked by Milei's administration in February 2023 due to concerns about market consolidation.
