The presidential spokesperson, Manuel Adorni , today ratified the Government's position of supporting Israel in the face of the escalation of tension in the Middle East due to Iran's attack, and maintained: " We do not consider that facing a problem that the world has It makes us a target , or changes the situation in a country that has already had two attacks.”

Furthermore, and in the framework of his usual press conference from Casa Rosada, he explained the role that Israeli ambassador Eyal Sela had in the run-up to the crisis committee meeting , which took place last night, headed by President Javier Milei.
“ The ambassador did not participate in the cabinet meeting . There was a previous meeting with him, where he made a brief presentation. It was not appropriate for him to participate in the cabinet meeting because it is an issue that only the Argentine authorities were responsible for discussing. “He finished speaking and left the government house,” he indicated.
In line with explicit support for Israel against Iran's attack, the official noted that "the entire free world is threatened." “We only have to take the side of those who defend the free world. Neutral or not neutral became obsolete, we believe that the world today is at risk,” he stated.
In turn, Adorni rejected that the position of the national government and Argentina causes a terrorist retaliation. “The president (Milei) has not received threats. We do not consider that facing a problem that the world has will make us a target or change the situation in a country that has already had two attacks,” he said.

However, he explained that "measures are being taken to effectively have greater control at the border and the Ministry of Security works together with Defense and Interior to have other types of alerts in the event of any episode that may draw our attention."
“We consider Iran's attack not only on Israel, but on the West, on individual freedom, on the free world that we defend. Our position is clear, to defend democracies, the free world and the rights of citizens who are attacked by states and governments that do not want peace,” Adorni concluded.
