Ambassador Guillermo Rodolfo Oliveri, Secretary for Worship of the Argentine Republic, was received today at the Magistral Palace by Ambassador Stefano Ronca, Secretary General for Foreign Affairs of the Sovereign Order of Malta.

The war in Ukraine, its economic consequences even across the Atlantic and in South America, as well as the importance of interreligious dialogue were some of the topics of the meeting.

During the talks, the excellent bilateral relations were emphasised, also thanks to the assiduous work of the Ambassador of the Argentine Republic, María Fernanda Silva, who accompanied the Minister during the visit, and that of the Ambassador of the Order of Malta to the Argentine Republic, Georg Khevenhueller Metsch.

The Argentine Republic and the Sovereign Order of Malta established diplomatic relations in 1948. In July 2021, Felipe Carlos Solá, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Argentine Republic was received by the Grand Chancellor, Albrecht Boeselager.

The Argentine Association of the Order of Malta works in close cooperation with the Embassy of the Order. The activities are diversified on various fronts, from fighting the Covid-19 pandemic, to support to many parishes, schools, hospitals and soup kitchens, especially in marginalized areas.
