During Argentine President Javier Milei’s official visit to Israel today, a notable exchange took place between Milei and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, highlighting their shared criticism of the United Nations.

Prime Minister Netanyahu recalled advice from the Lubavitcher Rebbe, who described the UN as a “house of lies and darkness” where it takes “a single candle” to reveal the truth. Netanyahu also highly praised the Lubavitcher Rebbe during his conversation with Milei, emphasizing the Rebbe’s wisdom and enduring influence.

President Milei affirmed this view, noting it closely aligned with the message he delivered in his recent UN speech.

The leaders’ conversation underscored their mutual skepticism about the international body and emphasized their commitment to exposing what they see as the UN’s shortcomings.

Milei’s visit marks a deepening of ties between Argentina and Israel amid ongoing discussions on diplomacy and shared values.
