Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar applauds Argentina’s President Javier Milei for declaring Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps a terrorist organization.
“This decision follows his designation of Hezbollah and Hamas as terrorist organizations, and places Argentina, under his leadership, at the forefront of the free world in the fight against the Iranian regime of terror and its proxies,” Sa’ar writes on X.
Argentina under Milei declared Hamas a terror group in 2024. Hezbollah, which carried out a deadly 1994 bombing on a Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, was declared a terror group in Argentina in 2019, under former President Mauricio Macri.
Noting the 1994 attack and a 1992 Iran-led attack on Israel’s embassy in Buenos Aires, Sa’ar writes that by declaring IRGC a terror group, “President Milei — one of the greatest leaders of our generation — has once again demonstrated moral clarity and an unwavering commitment to the values of freedom and the fight against its enemies.”
Milei already declared the IRGC’s foreign arm, the Quds Force, a terrorist organization in January.
