Milei says Argentina to move embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem in 2026

SUMMARY

Argentinian President Javier Milei plans to move his country's embassy in Israel from Herzliya to Jerusalem in 2026, demonstrating support for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government.

During a speech to Israel's parliament, Milei stated, “Argentina stands by you in these difficult days,” criticizing the international community for being misled by terrorists.

Milei, on a state visit to Israel, continues to demand the release of Israeli captives in Gaza. He also criticized activist Greta Thunberg for her stance on Israel's actions in Gaza. Currently, only a few countries have embassies in Jerusalem, a contentious issue in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
