Argentina’s president fires his foreign minister after vote in favor of ending US embargo on Cuba
Argentina's President Javier Milei fired Foreign Minister Diana Mondino hours after voting in favor of lifting the U.S. economic embargo on Cuba at the U.N. General Assembly.
Gerardo Werthein, Argentina's ambassador to the U.S., replaced Mondino as announced by spokesman Manuel Adorni on his X account.
The U.N. resolution condemning the U.S. embargo was supported by 187 nations, while the U.S. and Israel were the only opposing votes.
Because she did not support the US trade embargo against Cuba, Argentina's President Javier Milei fired Foreign Minister Diana Mondino. Her successor is the former US ambassador.
