Isaac Accords


The Isaac Accords is a diplomatic, economic, and cultural initiative aimed at strengthening cooperation between Israel and Latin American countries. The name alludes to the Abraham Accords, the 2020 agreements that normalized relations between Israel and several Arab states. It was first announced in June 2025 by Argentina's Ambassador to Israel Rabbi Shimon Axel Wahnish, who previously served as personal rabbi to Argentina's President Javier Milei.
The announcement followed the awarding of the Genesis Prize to President Javier Milei earlier in 2025. Additional details about Isaac Accords were announced following the award ceremony where Milei received the Genesis Prize, an award that is sometimes also called the “Jewish Nobel”.

Organization

To help implement the Isaac Accords, the Genesis Prize Foundation established a nonprofit organization, American Friends of Isaac Accords, based in New York. GPF provided seed funding of $1 million. This was the monetary component of the $1 million Genesis Prize awarded to Milei, which he declined to accept and asked that GPF donate the funds to this initiative.
