  "account": "On August 10, Argentina's Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno and the US Ambassador to Argentina, Peter Lamelas, signed the Geneva Consensus Declaration, a pro-life anti-abortion document promoted by the United States. However, the administration of President Javier Milei only announced this move three days later, after the US press reported on it. This decision came after the United States took over control of the Secretariat of the Geneva Consensus in June, replacing Hungary. The declaration, which is not legally binding, aims to exert influence over multilateral organizations and oppose the legalization of abortion. The secrecy surrounding Argentina's accession has led to speculation about its implications. If true, it could mark a shift in the country's stance on reproductive rights and potentially open the door for a debate on the current legislation governing voluntary termination of pregnancy.",
