Argentina Removes Historic Sabre from French Museum

The President of Argentina, Javier Milei, sparked controversy in February by removing a historic saber belonging to General San Martin, a key figure in Argentina’s independence movement, from the Musée National in Calais, France. The original saber is now housed in a replica at the Casa San Martin in Boulogne-sur-Mer, where the general spent his final years. This action has raised concerns about the preservation of Argentine heritage and diplomatic relations.
