Pope Leo XIV to visit Argentina in November 2026 FAST-MOVING

President Javier Milei has confirmed that Pope Leo XIV will visit Argentina from November 8 to November 11, 2026. This marks the first papal visit to the country in nearly 40 years. The pontiff's itinerary is expected to include stops in Buenos Aires, Luján, and Córdoba as part of a broader regional tour that also encompasses Uruguay and Peru.

Karina Milei, the Secretary General of the Presidency, is leading the interdisciplinary coordination efforts to organize the visit. This includes high-level meetings with national ministers, officials from the City of Buenos Aires, and representatives of the Catholic Church to manage logistics, security, and religious protocols. The visit is expected to require a massive security operation coordinated by the Federal Unified Command.

Separately, Argentina observed the 176th anniversary of the death of General José de San Martín. President Milei participated in official ceremonies at the Monument to the Liberator in Retiro, using the occasion to deliver a speech emphasizing freedom and his administration's political direction. The national holiday also saw significant tourism activity, with over one million travelers across the country.
