President Javier Milei held a cabinet meeting to assess Iran’s missile and drone strike on Israel. The Israeli ambassador to Argentina, Eyal Sela, joined the meeting and thanked the government for condemning the attack.Milei’s decision to take a stance in the conflict was at odds with Argentina’s foreign policy traditions. The country typically takes a neutral stance in international conflicts. Escalating violence between Iran and Israel is a sensitive matter for Argentina. The AMIA Jewish community center in Buenos Aires was destroyed by a bomb on July 18, 1994, killing 85 people.
