Argentine leader Milei launches initiative to boost Israel-Latin America ties
The Isaac Accords, a $1 million initiative launched by Milei, aims to enhance Israel's diplomatic ties with Latin American countries amid regional diplomatic challenges.
- On Tuesday, Argentine President Javier Milei is helping to launch the Isaac Accords, a $1 million initiative funded by the Genesis Prize to strengthen ties with Uruguay, Panama and Costa Rica.
- Earlier this year, Milei received the Genesis Prize in Jerusalem, recognizing his support for Israel amid international condemnation and Latin American nations' severed ties.
- Drawing on the 2020 Abraham Accords, the Isaac Accords will expand in 2026 to Brazil, Colombia, Chile, and possibly El Salvador, organizers say.
- In Buenos Aires, protesters held banners reading `Milei complicit in genocide` amid Argentina's strong ties with Israel.
- Meanwhile, Milei has shown growing public interest in Judaism and expressed intentions to convert, amid the U.S. moving to lift visa restrictions for Argentina.
