I was reading in Clarin today. Do you all think Milei is putting a target on Argentina with all of this talk about Iran? Why even get caught up in this mess? Milei needs to just shut up and focus on fixing Argentina's economy. Anything else is just noise.
IRAN ACCUSES MILEI OF CROSSING A “RED LINE”
The Iranian government accused President Javier Milei of crossing an “unforgivable red line” after declaring that the Islamic Republic is “an enemy of Argentina.” Through an editorial in the Tehran Times newspaper, it claimed that the leader is participating in an “Iranophobic project” of the "US Zionist axis” and warned that “Iran cannot remain indifferent to the hostile positions of the current Argentine government.”
Milei’s statement“We’re going to win. I don’t like Iran. They’ve planted two bombs on us, one at the AMIA and another at the Israeli Embassy. Therefore, let’s say, they’re our enemies. But on top of that, I have a strategic alliance with the United States and Israel.”
Excerpts from the statement in Tehran Times
“Considering these facts, Iran cannot remain indifferent to the hostile positions of the current Argentine government. The Islamic Republic of Iran, while maintaining total vigilance against these plots, must design a proportionate response to this enmity. The hand of Iran’s enemies is stained with the blood of innocent people from our country, including more than 160 students from the Minab school (recently destroyed by a U.S. missile).”
“Now, Argentina has officially presented itself as an enemy of Iran and has aligned with the United States and the Zionist regime in the military aggression against our nation. This is an unforgivable red line that has been crossed.”
“Recently, in a speech at a U.S. university, [Milei] explicitly labeled Iran an ‘enemy’ and declared that his country’s foreign policy is aligned with the aggressive strategies of the United States and the Israeli apartheid regime against Iran.”
“This, while the Islamic Republic of Iran has never considered the people or government of Argentina as its enemy, but it seems that Milei, with this approach and by crossing Iran’s red line of national security, seeks to sacrifice national interests and convenience on the altar of the United States and the Israeli apartheid regime.”
