US EditionArgentina Expels Iran's Charge D'affaires
Argentina said the envoy must leave within 48 hours after blacklisting the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and citing Iran's lack of cooperation in the AMIA case.
- On Thursday, Argentina declared interim chargé d'affaires Mohsen Soltani Tehrani persona non grata and ordered him to leave Buenos Aires within 48 hours, citing Iran's 'false, offensive and unwarranted accusations' against Argentinian authorities.
- Two days ago, Argentina designated the IRGC a 'terrorist organisation,' prompting Iran's Foreign Ministry to condemn the move as 'action against Iran's security and national interests' made under 'Zionist' pressure.
- Argentina's government cited Iran's 'persistent refusal' to cooperate with the Judiciary regarding the 1994 AMIA Jewish centre bombing, which left 85 dead, following the 1992 Israeli embassy attack that injured more than 200.
- The Foreign Ministry stated Argentina 'will not tolerate insults or interference from a State' that obstructs justice, signaling the expulsion deepens bilateral rupture and threatens future judicial cooperation and intelligence-sharing.
- Argentina's move follows international precedent: the United States designated the IRGC 'terrorist' in 2019 and the European Union blacklisted the military organization in January, positioning Argentina within global anti-terror efforts.
