Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is considering a visit to Buenos Aires to meet with Argentine President Javier Milei at the end of August. The trip faces complications due to concerns about flying through the airspace of countries that are members of the International Criminal Court, such as Brazil and Chile. The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and a former defense minister over alleged war crimes in Gaza, which Israel denies. Netanyahu's visit to Argentina would require assurances from the Argentine government that he would not face arrest, as Argentina is also a member of the court. President Milei recently visited Israel, announcing plans to relocate Argentina's embassy to Jerusalem and to establish direct flights between the two countries.
