Our relationship with Argentina
New Zealand enjoys a friendly, cooperative relationship with Argentina.
Last year marked the 60th anniversary of our diplomatic relations, and we are partner on issues of mutual interest, including Antarctica and the Southern Ocean, and work together on a range of issues such as conservation, nuclear disarmament, and agriculture technology.
We also share a passion for rugby. The sport has provided opportunities to strengthen connections between us through coaching and player exchanges.
Trade and economic
Travel is a major part of two-way trade.
New Zealand’s main goods exports to Argentina are paper products, machinery, medical equipment and pharmaceuticals. We import mainly agricultural products from Argentina in return.
