Within the framework of Argentina's pro tempore presidency, the Government of Javier Milei once again took a clear stance in defense of national sovereignty during the recent meeting of the Mercosur Human Rights area, on May 5 and 6.
The Argentine delegation, led by the renowned jurist Úrsula Basset, maintained a firm stance against an extreme left agenda aligned with ideological principles foreign to the country's values and culture.
Úrsula Basset, Doctor of Legal Sciences, full professor at the Universidad Católica Argentina (UCA), lecturer at UBA, and director of the Family Law Research Center, was appointed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to lead the Human Rights area with a rigorous legal approach aimed at preserving Argentine autonomy in multilateral forums.

Since her appointment in March, Basset has been promoting a critical review of the topics proposed by international organizations, dominated by the left, especially those related to the dangerous 2030 Agenda of the United Nations, seeking to reject topics like "gender" or "environmentalism," which are often laden with an ideological burden that doesn't respond to local realities or the priorities of the Argentine citizenry.
During the recent Mercosur meeting, Brazil and Uruguay, countries governed by the extreme left, attempted to push an agenda focused on topics such as indigenous peoples, Afro-descendants, and the LGBT community, all axes representing the woke agenda, globalism, and gender ideology they try to install in all countries.
Although Brazil and Uruguay attempted to advance these concepts, they ended up withdrawing from the meeting, as the Argentine delegation, led by Basset, defended their right to raise objections and rejected this global progressive agenda.

Basset's presence in this international space also responds to a mandate to review the role Argentina has played in multilateral forums, and seeks to rebuild a foreign policy that prioritizes the protection of children, the strengthening of the family, and human rights without ideological constraints.
The jurist has been recognized for her academic work in research projects on childhood, family, and essential rights, and her appointment is part of a broader strategy of professionalizing diplomatic teams, with solid profiles and proven track records in the legal and academic fields.
