WAR IN SOUTH ATLANTIC? In His UN General Assembly Speech, Argentina’s Milei Unveils New Effort To Retake ‘Illegally Occupied’ Falkland Islands
A south American country vows to kick British imperialism out of South Atlantic islands.
All over the planet, whatever remnants of the British Empire that still exist are getting torn down, like the Chagos Islands being returned to the Mauritius out there in the Indic Ocean.
This process is now expected to reach the South Atlantic, as Argentina has just launched a new initiative to regain the ‘illegally occupied’ Falkland Islands, that was object of a war in the 1980s.
Daily Mail reported:
“The announcement came during President Javier Milei’s speech to the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Wednesday.
The firebrand Argentinian leader told the summit that his country’s claim to the South Atlantic Island was ‘legitimate’ and ‘unrenounciable’.”
In his fiery speech Milei demanded from the UK the start of bilateral talks over the ‘sensitive and crucially important issue’ of what Argentines call the ‘Islas Malvinas’.
“I wish to reiterate our legitimate claim and irrenunuciable claim to sovereignty over the Malvinas, South Georgia, South Sandwich Islands and surrounding maritime area that continue to be illegally occupied”

‘I wish to reiterate our legitimate claim in terms of sovereignty over the Malvinas and the surrounding maritime areas that continue to be illegally occupied,’ he said.
‘In spite of the fact that 80 years have elapsed since the creation of [the UN], colonial situations such as this one remain unresolved. For this reason, we call on the United Kingdom to resume bilateral negotiations’.”
Baroness Chapman, Britain’s Minister for International Development, Latin America and Caribbean:
“’The UK’s support for the Falkland Islanders’ right of self-determination is unwavering. The people of the Falkland Islands made their wish to remain a self-governing overseas territory of the UK clear in an internationally observed referendum in 2013. The UK will continue to defend their right to decide their own future’.”
