Argentina has declared Mohsen Soltani Tehrani a persona non grata and must leave the country within 48 hours.
The announcement from Argentina says the decision was made in response to a statement from the Iranian foreign ministry “which contained false, offensive, and improper accusations against the Republic of Argentina.”
The Iranian statement marked a significant point of tension with Argentina, strongly condemning “the illegal and unjustified action” of President Javier Milei’s government. It described Milei’s decision to designate Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist group “an unforgivable offense against the Iranian people.”
“These constitute unconstitutional interference in our country’s internal affairs and a deliberate misrepresentation of decisions adopted in accordance with international law and national judicial order,” the Argentine statements says, while stressing the country’s “unbreakable commitment to the memory, justice and fight against terrorism, in complete adherence to international law.”

As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
