Transportation Minister Miri Regev, who is responsible for the torch-lighting ceremony, intends to offer Argentine President Javier Milei to light a torch on Independence Day. This was learned by Ynet. This would require changing the torch-lighting regulations through a government decision, as there is no precedent for a foreign leader lighting a torch. In addition, there is also preparation for the arrival of U.S. President Donald Trump to the ceremony, but confirmation has not yet been received from the White House.
