Following the ruling that holds Hezbollah and Iran responsible for attacks perpetrated against the Argentine Israelite Mutual Association (AMIA) in 1994 and the Israeli Embassy in 1992, the Argentine government reinforced security at sensitive points in the face of the possibility of new terrorist attacks, while the justice system reviews convictions and acquits some of those involved. The government’s direct order to tighten security at airports, embassies, and Jewish cultural and religious centers has not gone unnoticed. Patricia Bullrich, head of the Ministry of Security, together with Vicente Ventura Barreiro, secretary of the area, reinforced security at airports, embassies and Jewish cultural and religious centers. The ministry assured that these actions respond to a simple protocol and not to a specific threat. The verdict of the Criminal Cassation triggered a whirlwind of reactions in the judicial sphere. The reduction of sentences for some of those involved, such as former judge Juan José Galeano, and the acquittals of others, including the former head of the DAIA, Rubén Beraja, generated a debate about responsibility and justice in these emblematic cases. While Galeano’s sentence is reduced, others such as former prosecutors Eamon Mullen and José Barbaccia maintain their sentences, underscoring the complexity and contradictions surrounding these judicial processes. One of the highlights of the court ruling is the call on the Argentine State to file a formal complaint in international courts against the Islamic Republic of Iran. This action, which seeks to take the cause to a global dimension, poses new diplomatic and legal challenges for the country.
