Where is the source? That was my question. There should be a declaration on a government website in Spanish. Seeing Ukraine language on a polish website about Argentina joining NATO (or desiring to) is about as convoluted as you can get.

That's not a source, that's the AP which the first link leads to nowhere and it is a gas-lit paragraph:
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — Argentina formally requested on Thursday to join NATO as a global partner, a status that would clear the way for greater political and security cooperation at a time when the right-wing government of President Javier Milei aims to boost ties with Western powers and attract investment.
There is no source from the government, just a statement from the AP which is a questionable organization that used to be a "legitimate source". Yet there is no, source for the article.
Geoana said he welcomed Argentina’s bid to become an accredited partner in the alliance — a valued role short of “ally” for nations that are not in NATO’s geographical area and not required to take part in collective military actions. NATO membership is currently limited to countries of Europe, Turkey, Canada and the United States.
Where does this come from? What source?
