President of Argentina Javier Milei landed yesterday (Monday) in Israel for his second official visit since taking office, choosing to begin it with a prayer at the Western Wall.
A Prayer for the Return of the Hostages
For the second time, Milei chose to begin his visit to Israel at the holiest site to the Jewish people. During the visit, he offered a prayer for the safe return of the hostages to Israel.
Milei was joined by a senior Argentine delegation that included Foreign Minister Gerardo Werthein and his wife. They were received by Rabbi Shmuel Rabinowitz, Rabbi of the Western Wall and Holy Sites, and the CEO of the Western Wall Heritage Foundation, both of whom expressed deep appreciation for the president’s steadfast support for the Jewish people and the State of Israel.
Enthusiastic Support
At the Western Wall, President Milei reaffirmed his wholehearted support for the people of Israel. He stated, “This is the just cause for the West as well,” and highlighted the strong ties between Argentina and Israel.
Before concluding his trip this Thursday, Milei is expected to return to the Western Wall with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to officially close the visit.
As he departed, President Milei signed the guest book and offered a silent prayer under the heading “Freedom for Zion.”
