Javier Milei visits Israel, pledges to move Argentine embassy to Jerusalem

Argentina’s new President Javier Milei has promised to move his country’s embassy in Israel to Jerusalem. Milei, who staunchly backs Israel amid the war in Gaza, arrived in Jerusalem Tuesday and is set to meet rabbis and hold talks with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday.

Milei might be one of the most pro-Israel presidents in his country’s history, and has a well-documented fascination with Judaism, often suggesting that he may convert.
