In a reversal, President Donald Trump’s administration will reinstate Argentina into the U.S. visa waiver program.
It’s a symbolic upgrade in America’s relationship with Argentina under its current leader, President Javier Milei.

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem announced Argentina’s reinstatement while visiting Buenos Aires, the nation’s capital.
Noem cited Argentina’s shared commitment to border security.

“Under President Javier Milei’s leadership, Argentina is becoming an even stronger friend to the United States—more committed than ever to border security for both of our nations,” Noem said.
