SIDE and the Argentine Foreign Ministry participated in the international summit on terrorism hosted by Marco Rubio

In a diplomatic turn that continues to position the Argentine Republic at the forefront of global security, the government of Javier Milei has consolidated a total alignment with the administration of Donald Trump to confront the most dangerous threat of our time: transnational far-left terrorism.

This commitment was crystallized with the active participation of the highest ranks of national intelligence and diplomacy in the Ministerial Meeting on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism, a conclave of utmost relevance held in Washington D.C. and led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

The Argentine delegation was led by the Undersecretary of the State Intelligence Secretariat (SIDE), José Lago Rodríguez, who, along with authorities from powers such as Germany, Italy, and Latvia, coordinated critical strategies to dismantle extremist groups attempting to destabilize free nations.

In parallel, Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno reaffirmed the country's commitment before representatives from over 60 nations, emphasizing that the Argentina of Milei will no longer be a spectator but a protagonist in protecting citizens, officials, and critical infrastructure against ideological violence.

“Political terrorism knows no borders, and its fight cannot either”, stated the SIDE through its official channels, highlighting that this cooperation aims to strengthen international law enforcement mechanisms to counter violent networks operating in a coordinated manner on a global scale.

The summit, motivated by an alarming diagnosis from the State Department, revealed that the far-left has historically been the greatest engine of death in the West. Between 1970 and 1980, these actors were responsible for 93% of terrorist attacks and 58% of deaths linked to political violence.

Far from being a problem of the past, current data shows a bloody resurgence: since 2016, attacks have drastically increased in the United States and Europe.

In U.S. territory, the threat is now predominantly from the left:

Far-left groups were responsible for 63% of all recently recorded anti-government attacks or plots.

In 2025, these movements were responsible for three of the four deaths that occurred from such attacks.

The situation in Europe is equally critical, with a record number of attacks against rail networks, critical infrastructure, and private companies in the last three years, resulting in millions in economic damages.

In 2024, 21 attacks by far-left and anarchist terrorists were recorded, a figure that remained alarming in 2025 with 12 attacks reported out of a total of 45.

In light of this hybrid war scenario, the State Department has already designated four violent far-left organizations as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and is evaluating new additions to the blacklist.

Additionally, a bounty has been placed on the heads of terror financiers: the Rewards for Justice program offers up to 10 million dollars for information that helps dismantle the economic mechanisms supporting these groups.

With its participation in this forum, Argentina not only regains its international prestige but also integrates into a network for exchanging operational intelligence to restrict the movements of terrorists and sabotage their plans for economic sabotage and antisemitic or anti-technological attacks. The alliance between Trump and Milei thus consolidates as the impenetrable wall against those who seek to destroy Western democracies through fire and chaos.
