President Javier Milei will hold meetings with Alvin Holsey, head of the United States Southern Command, who begins a three-day official visit to Argentina this Monday. The agenda includes meetings with national authorities, a strategic trip to Ushuaia, and a formal dinner with military representatives.
The arrival of the American admiral strengthens the ties of cooperation between both countries in a geopolitically increasingly relevant context.
An intense agenda in Buenos Aires
Admiral Holsey will arrive this afternoon at Aeroparque along with a delegation composed of members of Donald Trump's administration, including Abigail Dressel, chargé d'affaires in Argentina, and Major General Julian Cheater, director of Strategy, Policy, and Plans.
Upon his arrival, he will be received by officers of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, but the official activity will begin on Tuesday. At 10:00 a.m., Holsey will be received at the Libertador Building by the Minister of Defense, Luis Petri, and the Chief of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Armed Forces, Xavier Isaac.
"The Southern Command has an essential role in military cooperation between the United States and Latin America," government sources told Infobae.
After a brief ceremony and the presentation of protocol gifts, Holsey will hold working meetings and share a light lunch with Argentine authorities. Then, at 2:30 p.m., a private audience is scheduled with Javier Milei at Casa Rosada, where both leaders will address topics of strategic interest.
In the evening, Holsey will attend a dinner at the Palacio Bosch, the headquarters of the United States Embassy, where he will reunite with Milei and authorities of the Armed Forces.
