Javier Milei's government signed a declaration of intent with the United States on Monday at Casa Rosada to join the Visa Waiver Program.
The signing took place during a meeting between President Javier Milei and the United States Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, with the presence of the Minister of Homeland Security, Patricia Bullrich, and Foreign Minister Gerardo Werthein.
This program will allow Argentine citizens to travel to the United States for tourism or business for up to 90 days without the need to obtain a visa, facilitating commercial, cultural, and tourism exchange between both countries.

Meanwhile, Minister Patricia Bullrich signed a memorandum of understanding on security at Casa Rosada with the United States Secretary of Homeland Security.
The agreement was signed during a meeting led by President Javier Milei at Casa Rosada, which was also attended by Argentine Foreign Minister Gerardo Werthein.
The document establishes direct collaboration between both countries in sensitive areas such as customs control, the fight against drug trafficking, terrorism, and organized crime, consolidating an alliance that seeks to modernize and strengthen Argentina's operational capabilities in matters of domestic security.

Joining the Visa Waiver Program could benefit thousands of Argentines who travel annually to the United States and would boost integration between both nations, in line with the strengthening of cooperation in security and the fight against organized crime.
Noem's visit adds to the list of Trump administration figures who have arrived in Argentina so far this year. In April, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and the head of the United States Southern Command, Alvin Holsey, were in the country. In May, Secretary of Health Robert F. Kennedy Jr. also arrived.
