Worth noting that the Chinese ambassador also called it the Malvinas throughout, not the Falklands.

          That it’s literally a foreign government’s outpost on an island directly off the coast of Argentina, which Argentina could benefit from (and Argentina isn’t as rich as Britain).

          What claim do a bunch of British people who get their British people food shipped half way around the world have? They don’t even import food from Argentina as far as I know.

          Apparently they even has a ship they sail around there. Woo hoo massively polluting military industrial complex!

            I agree, how dare the Irish occupiers squat on the western british isles, intruding into the UK’s rightful atlantic EEZ. The people that live there will be returned to rightful british rule, as that is clearly what is harmonious.

          • 100% agree, the US’s claim to Cuba is valid and it should be a US territory.

            That’s how we handle islands off the coast right? Significantly closer than the Falklands, and the US actually owned Cuba for a while!

        Argintina literally had a US installed fascist government that was torturing people for being socialists at the time of the Falklands war. Losing the Falklands war was one of the main things that led to the collapse of said government
