Argentine President Javier Milei has fired Foreign Minister Diana Mondino as a result of her voting against the U.S. embargo on Cuba at the United Nations. The firing took place amid ongoing tensions between the two, but the decision was announced as a result of the vote, which contradicted the administration's expected alignment with the United States and Israel.
The UN Assembly passed a new resolution condemning the U.S. embargo against Cuba, with 187 countries supporting it and only the United States and Israel voting against. Given Milei's alignment with the mentioned countries, many anticipated Argentina would break from a historic stance and join them for the first time, as reported by El País.
