  • Tensions between Chile and Argentina continued after a bilateral meeting between their presidents.
  • The leaders reaffirmed the validity of the 1881 Boundary Treaty and the 1984 Treaty of Peace and Friendship.
  • A controversial decree that remains in force and new sources of confusion have reopened friction between the two countries.

The bilateral meeting between the presidents of Chile and Argentina did not calm tensions between the neighboring countries. Instead, a controversial decree that remains in force and new “confusions” have reopened friction.

Javier Milei’s visit to Chile and his bilateral meeting with José Antonio Kast produced a formal reaffirmation of two key agreements: the 1881 Boundary Treaty and the 1984 Treaty of Peace and Friendship. Both presidents confirmed that the treaties remain fully valid.

That declaration, however, did not settle the concerns highlighted in the article. The continued validity of the disputed decree and the latest points of confusion have kept the issue politically sensitive between Chile and Argentina.
