Argentinian President Javier Milei visited the Western Wall after the torch-lighting ceremony, for the second time during his current visit to Israel. "The visit to Israel at this time was very important to me. When friends are in a difficult situation, this is the time to support them. Just as the Maccabees were victorious in the past, so the people of Israel will defeat their enemies now. Here I feel close to God," he said.
