US Welcomes Argentina’s Terrorist Designation Of Iran’s IRGC Quds Force

Jan 18, 2026, 14:26 GMT+0

The United States has welcomed Argentina’s decision to designate the Quds Force of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organisation.

The department called the move an important step in countering Iran-backed militancy.

In a post on X, the State Department’s Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs said the Quds Force, the IRGC’s external operations arm, has fuelled violence across the Middle East and beyond, while also repressing its own population at home.

The bureau praised the decision by Argentina under President Javier Milei, saying the designation strengthens international efforts to counter terrorism linked to Iran and to support the Iranian people.

Argentina announced the move after Milei signed a decree formally designating the IRGC’s Quds Force and 13 individuals associated with its external operations as terrorists.

Iran has not yet responded publicly to the announcement.
