Argentina's President Fires Foreign Minister Over UN Cuba Vote

Javier Milei dismissed Diana Mondino after Argentina supported lifting the US embargo on Cuba.

President Javier Milei replaced Foreign Minister Diana Mondino with Gerardo Werthein, the ambassador to the US.
Mondino's dismissal followed Argentina's vote at the UN to lift the US embargo on Cuba, aligning with 187 other countries.
Milei's administration emphasized a shift towards aligning with US and Israeli interests, opposing the Cuban regime.
Observers noted Mondino's role in smoothing diplomatic relations despite Milei's controversial statements.
The decision reflects Milei's broader foreign policy realignment away from previous administrations' left-leaning ties.
