=In late June 2020, it was confirmed that Bustillo would replace Ernesto Talvi as Minister of Foreign Relations of Uruguay, who presented his resignation, stating "It has been a privilege to serve the citizens of Uruguay from the Foreign Ministry at this time in which it was necessary to face extremely complex challenges". Finally, on July 1, it was confirmed that Bustillo would take office on Monday, July 6. The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs is Carolina Ache Batlle.
In September 2020, UN Watch exposed Uruguay’s vote for a UN resolution that singled out Israel alone in the world for supposedly violating women’s rights. Uruguay’s Foreign Minister Francisco Bustillo declared that his country’s UN vote against Israel was a “circumstantial error,” and removed the foreign ministry’s director-general of political affairs, Ambassador Pablo Sader, and that Uruguay’s “foreign policy will keep its historical stance to defend the rights of Israel.”
Resignation
On 1 November 2023, Bustillo resigned as foreign minister after audio messages were published in which he appeared to ask former deputy Foreign Minister Carolina Ache to not hand over her phone to investigators to prevent access to conversations Ache had with another official relating to the granting of a passport to Sebastian Marset, whom the latter official called a “dangerous” drug trafficker, while he was detained in the United Arab Emirates in 2021.
