Javier Milei plans to travel to Israel before the end of the month to strengthen international ties with that country. During his four-day stay, he is expected to sign a Memorandum of Understanding focused on cooperation in the fight against terrorism. The Argentine ambassador in Israel, Axel Wahnish, confirmed in an interview the upcoming visit of Milei.
Amidst speculation, March 23 is indicated as the most probable date for Milei's arrival in Israel, where he will be received by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The agenda of the Argentine president will include a speech in the Israeli Parliament, the Knesset, as well as other activities that are currently being organized.
The Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei, and Chancellor Gerardo Werthein may be part of the delegation accompanying the president on this official trip. Werthein, who met with Israeli authorities last month, is involved in negotiations to advance the aforementioned historic memorandum.
Days ago, Netanyahu thanked Milei for the solidarity expressed following the murder of two children by a terrorist group, a gesture that was highlighted as symbolic in Israel. "It should serve as inspiration to all leaders of the civilized world," commented an Israeli spokesperson about Milei's attitude. The visit of the Argentine president is expected to be fruitful in strengthening bilateral ties and cooperation in security matters.
