Trump broke with more than a century and a half of tradition and invited a wide array of national leaders and political figures to his inauguration.

President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration on Jan. 20 will be the first of its kind to boast foreign heads of state as attendees.

Trump broke with more than a century and a half of tradition to invite a wide array of national leaders and political figures to the inauguration, making the occasion historic not only for Trump, but for the guests as well.

No foreign head of state has attended the U.S. presidential inauguration since at least 1874, when the State Department began recording such things.

Trump has invited a wide array of guests, though some have elected to send proxies in their stead and others have been prevented from attending due to extenuating circumstances.

Aside from some heads of state and senior foreign dignitaries, the inauguration is slated to be a veritable who’s who of conservative populist leaders from across Europe, who have commonly championed the causes of economic vitality, border security, and traditional culture.

Here’s a look at the foreign leaders and political personalities expected to be in attendance:

Javier Milei, President of Argentina

Milei has made a name for himself among thought leaders for his relentless campaign to cut government spending, eliminate regulations, and pare back the country’s administrative state.

He came to the presidency at a time when Argentina had spent nearly a decade and a half in a deficit, was wracked by a poverty rate above 40 percent, and burdened with an annual inflation that eventually pushed to nearly 300 percent.

Milei has since eliminated 10 of Argentina’s 18 government ministries, capped the salaries of top bureaucrats, and fired 34,000 public employees, cutting government spending by 30 percent. As of Jan. 17, the nation is entering its first year of budget surplus in 14 years.

A political outsider, Milei has found common cause with Trump in both style and substance, and was the first foreign leader to meet with Trump following the president-elect’s victory in November.
