Buenos Aires, Argentina – The government of President Javier Milei has issued a powerful and unequivocal condemnation of Iran, vehemently repudiating the recent designation of Ahmad Vahidi as commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard. This provocative move by Iran is regarded as a profound insult to the memory of the victims of the horrific 1994 AMIA bombing in Buenos Aires, for which Vahidi stands as a principal suspect under international arrest warrant.

President Milei’s administration views this designation not only as an affront but as a direct challenge to the pursuit of justice for one of Argentina’s most devastating terrorist attacks. In a resolute statement, the government reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to combating terrorism in all its forms and to tirelessly defending the memory and dignity of the victims.

The decision to elevate Ahmad Vahidi, who is subject to an Interpol international arrest warrant for his alleged role in the AMIA bombing, is a stark reminder of the impunity that has long plagued this case. However, under President Milei’s leadership, Argentina is taking a firm and principled stand, sending a clear message to the international community that such actions will not be tolerated.

This decisive condemnation underscores President Milei’s dedication to upholding international law, ensuring accountability for grave crimes, and championing the cause of justice for those affected by terrorism. Argentina, under its current leadership, continues to be a vocal advocate for victims worldwide and a steadfast opponent of states that harbor or promote terrorism.
