“Am Yisrael Chai”: Argentina’s President, Mr. Javier Milei, concluded his visit to Israel with an emotional prayer at the Western Wall on the eve of Independence Day.
At the conclusion of his official visit to Israel, Argentina’s President, Mr. Javier Milei, arrived last night (Tuesday) for a visit and prayer at the Western Wall.
During his visit, and in honor of the 78th Independence Day of the State of Israel, the president offered a special prayer for the welfare of Israel and Argentina, and for the continued strengthening of the strong friendship between their leaders and nations.
During the visit, the director of the Western Wall Heritage Foundation, Mr. Mordechai (Suli) Eliav, presented the president with ancient ash from the Second Temple period, recently uncovered at the base of a ritual bath (mikveh) from the end of that era. The president was deeply moved to touch the ancient ash.
At the conclusion of the emotional visit, Argentina’s President said: “This visit to Israel at this time was very important to me! When friends are in a difficult situation, this is the time to come and support them! Just as the Maccabees triumphed in the past, so too the people of Israel will defeat their enemies now! The Jewish people are the people of God!”
“Here I feel close to God!”
