Argentine President Javier Milei told the Israel Allies Foundation conference Wednesday that his government designated Hamas, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and the Quds Force as terrorist organizations, expelled Iranian regime representatives, and signed a 'freedom and democracy memorandum' with Israel. Milei said he decided 'from day one' of his presidency to place Argentina 'on the right side of history,' according to his remarks carried by Israeli media.
Argentine President Javier Milei addressed the Israel Allies Foundation conference in Jerusalem on Wednesday, outlining his administration's sweeping pro-Israel policy measures. Milei stated that his government designated Hamas, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and the IRGC's Quds Force as terrorist organizations, expelled representatives of the Iranian regime, and signed a 'freedom and democracy memorandum' with Israel. He noted that Argentina became the first South American country to chair the Israel Allies Foundation, and was among the 'original driving forces' behind the Isaac Agreements — a reference to a diplomatic framework named after former Argentine President Isaac Herzog's father, aimed at expanding Latin American-Israeli ties. 'From the very first day of my presidency, I made the firm decision to place Argentina on the right side of history,' Milei said. 'We have a responsibility to place Latin America on the right side — the side of life, freedom, and democracy.' The address builds on Milei's previous statements reported by The Zioneer earlier Wednesday, in which he claimed the 'radical left has an alliance with Islamist terrorism.' Argentina's shift aligns with broader Trump-administration policies designating the IRGC as a terrorist entity, though the U.S. has simultaneously engaged in diplomacy with Tehran via an emerging memorandum of understanding.
