President Herzog toured Kibbutz Nir Oz today (Thursday) with Argentinian President Javier Milei, visiting a number of the ruined houses from the October 7 and meeting with Ofelia Roitman, who was taken hostage by Hamas and then released.

At the end of the tour, both Presidents gave statements to the press.

President Herzog stressed Milei's friendship with Israel, saying that "Your visit here today is a unique show of solidarity, of friendship, of a deep understanding of the feelings and the agony that Israel is going through, and also sharing with us the vision of hope: We shall rebuild this place. We shall bring back the community. And we shall protect Israelis and we hopefully will create a different future for us and for our neighbors."

He ended by saying that "thank you President Milei, I could see how emotional this visit here and in Israel was for you. We say, in Hebrew- “Chaver” like your name Javier means friend. You're a true, dear friend of Israel and we appreciate and thank you very much."

President Milei discussed the horror of what he saw and what Israel experienced, saying that "we again strongly and unambiguously, condemn these abhorrent actions and reaffirm our solidarity and support for Israel, again for the legitimate right to self-defense. We will continue to work in order to demand going forward the release of all of the hostages, regardless of the nationality."
