In this speech, Milei reinforces the alignment of the Argentine government with the Trump bloc, which is now highly questioned, and raises questions about the possible diplomatic and geopolitical consequences for the country. During the conference, Milei stated that Argentina has a 'strategic alliance' with the United States and Israel and justified his stance by recalling the attacks against the Israeli Embassy in 1992 and the AMIA in 1994. Amid the growing escalation of the war in the Middle East, Argentine President Javier Milei once again reaffirmed his alignment with the United States and Israel during an event at Yeshiva University in New York. There, he expressed his pride in being 'the most Zionist president in the world' and asserted that Iran is an 'enemy' of Argentina, in a speech that reinforces the foreign policy his government has been promoting. In this context, the head of state stated that Iran must be considered an enemy and even predicted that 'we are going to win the war,' referring to the conflict involving Washington and Tel Aviv against the Iranian government. The event was part of the president's tour of the United States, which included political and business meetings. This marks a shift from the historic position of relative neutrality that Argentine foreign policy has maintained in conflicts in the Middle East. Following his academic presentation, Milei participated in a gala dinner in New York organized by the Jewish publication The Algemeiner, a fundraising event where tickets for the most exclusive sectors reach very high figures and attended by business leaders and figures from the international establishment. Milei's statements come at a time of high international tension following attacks and bombings involving the United States, Israel against Iran, while deaths continue in Gaza.
