Economy Minister Luis Caputo said in a televised message that the Argentine peso will be devalued by 50% from 400 pesos to the U.S. dollar, to 800 pesos to the dollar.
"For few months, we're going to be worse than before," he said.

Milei said the country didn't have time to consider other alternatives.
