- Argentina has repaid the U.S. for a currency swap framework it provided the South American country last year in a bid to stabilize its economy, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Friday.

"I am pleased to announce that, reflecting its strengthened financial position, Argentina has both quickly and fully repaid its limited draw on the swap facility with the United States, such that the Exchange Stabilization Fund currently does not hold any pesos," Bessent said in a post on X.
