Falklands/Malvinas reawakened as trump revenge weapon

I would hope that Milei will respect the wishes of the actual population of the islands.

And for those Argies who claim that the population has been implanted I have to ask when did any Argentines live there , for longer than a week, and where there ever any Argentines born there.

The answer is No and No.

I don't get the Argentines' obsession with the islands, to be fair. The war itself was as short-lived as a spring fling during teenage years, they miserably lost, there is nothing culturally argentinian in there.

I could understand it if they were honest and say it was about natural resources/underwater/water space. Furthermore, it doesn't seem Argentina has the political strength/stance to claim anything from a world superpower like the UK.

In my view, this is just an internal marketing/political turn by every president in charge. They look for the people's support by reliving the issue now and then. I don't think they actually think they can get the islands back.

Argentina should stick to what they do best....playing football and fiddling the tax man.

The UK is no longer a world superpower, far from it. If Argentina decided to retake the islands, the UK armed forces are so badly reduced that it would be a non-starter. But that's not going to happen and for me, this is simply a storm in a tea cup. But Milei needs to keep his gob shut.

Probably not.

Proudly flying the flag out at the quinta. It was the missus who put it up not me. Just as well she didn't buy a Union Jack!!
