# Sample data in a copy/paste friendly format. Replace this with your own data frame
Base <- data.frame(
    PAIS_ORIGEN = "AR - ARGENTINA",
    PAIS_PROCEDENCIA = "BR - BRAZIL"
)

#Relevant code
Base %>%
    mutate(across(c(PAIS_ORIGEN, PAIS_PROCEDENCIA), ~ str_remove(.x, "^.{2}\\s-\\s")))
#>   PAIS_ORIGEN PAIS_PROCEDENCIA
#> 1   ARGENTINA           BRAZIL
