Javier Milei asserted that "Iran is an enemy of Argentina" and defended Israel's attacks.
During an interview addressing international politics , President Javier Milei asserted that " Iran is an enemy of Argentina," referring to the attacks on the AMIA and the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires. He also reaffirmed his support for the Israeli offensive in the Middle East and criticized the memorandum signed during the Kirchner administration.
Milei justified the Israeli bombings as a preemptive action against the Iranian threat and supported the German chancellor's statements, who claimed that Israel "is doing the dirty work." In this context, the president emphasized: " Iran has already attacked Argentina. There have been two attacks: AMIA and the Israeli embassy, killing 114. Iran is an enemy of Argentina ."

The head of state also differentiated his position from that of the previous administration. "It was during our administration that Hezbollah and Hamas were declared terrorist organizations. We did it. Not to be confused with the memorandum with Iran : that was Kirchnerism, and Cristina will have to answer to the courts," he noted.
Milei avoided describing the actions of Cristina Fernández 's government as treason, but emphasized the seriousness of the pact with Tehran: "I don't know if it constitutes treason, but they planted two bombs," she said, referring to the attacks that remain unpunished.
“This is key. During our administration, Argentina included Hezbollah and Hamas on the list of terrorist groups . This is no small matter,” the president insisted, emphasizing his foreign policy based on alignment with Israel and the rejection of regimes he considers authoritarian.
The president also praised the Israeli military's actions amid the conflict with Hamas and Hezbollah. " Israel fights with nobility and honor . If it weren't for Iron Dome, it would have more than a million dead. Iran attacks civilian targets. Israel responds with surgical strikes against military targets ," he explained.
In his closing remarks, Milei highlighted Israel 's role throughout recent history. " Israel has already saved the West on other occasions. It did so with Iraq in 1981, with Syria in 2007, and now it's doing it again.
"He's defending Western culture ," he said. The president also linked the international conflict to current ideological disputes. "The 'woke' movements are on the side of the left. And the left wants to destroy Israel because in doing so they attack Judeo-Christian values , which are the foundation of the capitalist system," Javier Milei stated.
