“The UK is not part of the EU. They are upset by the use of the word Malvinas. If they were in the EU perhaps they would have pushed back against it.”
This was a misstep by the EU. No country should legitimize the stupid Argentinian expansionism, especially countries like Portugal, Spain or France, who also have islands that are closer to third countries.
The Falkland were never Argentinian, it makes as much sense to declare them Argentinian as to declare the Canaries Moroccan or Saint Pierre et Miquelon Canadian.
If being close is reason to annex it, than let the wars begin! Because every territory is close to some other territory.
If you’re gonna quit the game, you don’t get to vote on the rules.
No one asked the residents huh.
They did and they are abiding by their will.
…the Falkland Islands are British. That is the clear will of the Falkland Islanders. Ten years ago, 99.8 per cent of Falkland Islanders who voted said they wanted to stay a part of the UK family.
“Our commitment to that decision is unwavering and will continue to be so.”
