The Argentine government would be willing to send military efforts to the US in the war against Iran, according to one of the presidential spokespersons, Javier Lanari, in an interview with the Spanish newspaper The World.
According to him, there is no formal request from Washington, but the South American country is prepared to support Donald Trump’s government in this regard, if requested at some point.
On Tuesday, President Javier Milei renewed his criticism of Iran by declaring that the Persian country is governed by a tyranny that sows terror around the world.
“We are making clear what our position is at this historic moment, when the United States and Israel have decided to put an end to the Iranian regime, a tyranny that not only holds its own population captive, but has also been dedicated to sowing terror around the world for decades,” Milei said at the ceremony commemorating the 1992 attack on the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires which, like the attack on the AMIA Jewish community center in 1994, is attributed by local courts to Iran and the Lebanese terrorist organization Hezbollah.
Milei said in his speech that Argentina is Israel’s partner in defending the values of freedom and the fight against terrorism, values that, according to him, “are an inseparable part of the Western tradition.”
