President Milei’s surprising devotion to Judaism and Israel provokes tension in Argentina and beyond
Summary by Washington Top News
At the base of the sacred Western Wall in Jerusalem’s Old City, President Javier Milei of Argentina appeared to be in a spiritual trance.

Although born and raised Roman Catholic, Milei has increasingly shown public interest in Judaism and even expressed intentions to convert.
