Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar met with the foreign ministers of Argentina, Paraguay, and Bolivia in Washington, according to a report. The three countries are now led by governments described as friendly to Israel, following a series of right-wing electoral victories across South America.
The meeting is the latest in a pattern of diplomatic engagement between Israel and the region. As The Zioneer reported on June 22, a wave of right-wing victories has reshaped the continent, with Brazil's upcoming October election presenting a potential further shift. Earlier this week, The Zioneer noted that FM Sa'ar had congratulated Colombia's new president-elect and invited him to Israel.
The report highlighted that only a turnaround in Brazil — where a left-wing government has been hostile to Israel — is needed to complete the regional realignment. The outcomes of the October election in Brazil remain uncertain.
