BUENOS AIRES: President Javier Milei will visit Israel on Sunday for talks with his close ally, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Argentina’s presidency said, as a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah took effect.
This will be the third visit to Israel as leader by the libertarian Milei, an ardent defender of the policies of both Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump.
Milei, who was raised in a Catholic family but studied Jewish scripture, has cheered the US-Israeli strikes on Iran.
Last month he called Israel a “strategic ally” of Argentina with “shared values.”
He will meet Netanyahu at the Western Wall holy site in Jerusalem, which he also visited in February 2024 and June 2025, his office said.
