Trump celebrates Mexico’s ratification of USMCA

Argentina: On 11 and 12 June, the US Embassy in Argentina and US Ambassador Edward Prado hosted a workshop focused on countering the terrorist activities of Hezbollah in the Western Hemisphere, according to an official media release from the US Department of State. The workshop centred on neutralising the Lebanon-based Hezbollah’s global operations by convening judicial officials, prosecutors, and finance specialists from Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Panama, Paraguay, and Peru as well as representatives from police forces from the Americas and Interpol. The talks illustrated Hezbollah’s attempts to both continue and expand fundraising efforts in the Western Hemisphere and specifically within Argentine society. The renewed discussion comes ahead of the upcoming Western Hemisphere ministerial meeting to be hosted by the Argentine government on 18 and 19 July in commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the Hezbollah attack on the Amia Jewish community centre in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1994.
