here will be no stop at “Stanley” for the UN since the islands are not officially part of anyone, nor an independent state. nor to South America. islands choose to be in this legal limbo, not Pertec to any regional or political organization, totally isolated. continent turns its back, simply do not exist, there is a dispute of sovereignty and an illegal occupation and nobody wants to make a stop at its port. while the Islanders continue their attitude of discrimination and unilateral actions will never belong to anyone or anything, just to their fictional status in Britain. and is not sure the oil issue, and less without any support of the continent. a position that is totally unsustainable and costly both economically and politically. sooner or later no matter what should happen, the world is already aware of the issue. and no one supports a powerful imposing conditions to 12000 miles from home
