Javier Milei Wins the 2025 “Jewish Nobel Prize”

Today, The Genesis Prize (New York) announces President of Argentina Javier Milei as the 2025 Genesis Prize Laureate, the first time the award, known as “The Jewish Nobel Prize,” has been bestowed upon a head of state.

Genesis Prize Chairman Stan Polovets praises Milei’s support for Israel, achievements in reforming Argentina’s economy, and pursuit of justice for AMIA terror victims.

Milei was the unanimous choice of the nine judges on the committee, which commended him for his unequivocal support of Israel during one of the most difficult times since the founding of the Jewish State.

President Milei recently announced his decision to move the Argentinian embassy to Jerusalem, has reversed years of anti-Israel votes by Argentina in the United Nations, and has pledged to bring culprits responsible for the AMIA and Israeli Embassy bombings in Argentina in 1992 and 1994, respectively, to justice.

The planned relocation of Argentina’s embassy to Jerusalem is in sharp contrast to the actions of several other South American countries, which cut diplomatic relations with Israel and recalled their ambassadors over the war in Gaza.

Shortly after the start of hostilities initiated by Hamas on October 7, 2023, Bolivia severed diplomatic ties with Israel, accusing it of carrying out “crimes against humanity,” while Chile and Colombia recalled their ambassadors as they criticized the Israeli military offensive against Hamas militants. In May 2024, Brazil withdrew its ambassador to Israel after months of tensions between the two countries.

Economic Achievements

In addition to Milei’s strong pro-Israel stance, the Genesis Prize Selection Committee praised his achievements in reforming Argentina’s economy, including bringing inflation down from 25% per month to 2.4%, reversing the freefall of the country’s currency, and posting a fiscal surplus for the first time in 15 years.

Despite falling incomes caused by Milei’s reforms, he maintains an approval rating of over 50%, the third highest among the world’s democratic leaders. And notably, the “S&P Merval Index,” which tracks the performance of the largest publicly traded companies listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, has generated a return of 173% in 2024, by far outperforming all other global markets.  During the same period, Brazil’s stock market fell 7% and Mexico’s 11%, while S&P 500 rose “only” 27%.

Me: Earned and one of the best decisions of the ‘Genesis Prize Foundation’. The big question is: Who will be the Israeli Milei? Israel is in dire need of a reform of bureaucracy and the deep state must be put into place. Actually, the elected government and elected MKs (Knesset) seem not to be in charge but the unelected elites of the deep state.
