  "account": "President Javier Milei, during his third address to the United Nations General Assembly, harshly criticized the United Nations, describing it as a \"useless organization\" due to its inability to resolve the sovereignty dispute over the Malvinas Islands between Argentina and the United Kingdom. He stated that Argentina had decided to take measures against companies and individuals involved in an offshore drilling project around the islands. Milei emphasized that the Malvinas issue is a national cause and urged the UN to resume sovereignty negotiations. He also addressed global energy companies, encouraging them to invest in Argentina's Vaca Muerta oil field, which he deemed a \"historic opportunity.\" Additionally, Milei accused the UN of contributing to a \"genocide\" by advising governments to enforce lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic.",
