Milei Signs New Israel Accords and Endorses U.S.–Israel War on Iran

The visit signals a sharper Argentine tilt toward Israel on security and technology.

Overview

  • Argentina and Israel, which met Sunday in Jerusalem, signed the Isaac Agreements to expand ties and a separate pact on artificial intelligence and counterterrorism.
  • A new El Al route will link Buenos Aires and Tel Aviv with direct flights starting in November, cutting travel time for business and family travel.
  • Milei declared public support for the U.S. and Israel in their war against Iran and noted Argentina’s April 2 move to list the IRGC’s Quds Force as terrorist and to expel Iran’s top envoy.
  • The president restated his plan to move Argentina’s embassy to Jerusalem when conditions allow, a step that departs from long‑standing international practice on the city’s status.
  • During the trip he visited the Western Wall, prerecorded the Mount Herzl torch ceremony as the first foreign head of state to do so, and on Monday received Israel’s Presidential Medal of Honor from Isaac Herzog.
