    If I know Italians, they were more interested in what was for lunch.

    The boys a typical Argie fool, believes his own cr*p.

    And trying to get ALL of South America involved? Even that bunch of tin-pot dictatorships and banana Republics know better than to trust Argentina.

    “ … He went there; stayed there not 3 months – just long enough to embroil his country in a senseless and wicked quarrel with the Government; and, without waiting for orders from his Government, demanded his passports and came home. Nothing but the imbecility of that South American abortion of a state saved him from indelible disgrace and this country from humiliation in that concern ..”

    It is all a smog to hide Argentina's economic woes. But it is unsustainable. We bloggers help to keep it going for longer. I wonder why that is. Perhaps its a desire for at least temporary “authorship”. Like the promulgations of the good Ambassador, on behalf of a temporary government. Sad: Argentina if sincerely could be liked and involved. No denying it is potentially a great country.
    Much quicker that way to link with the Islanders.

    anyone else feel like helping me sponsor a professional violinist to follow this sad little clown around so that his self pitying hysterics can at the very least be accompanied by a fitting soundtrack?

    also wasn't he supposed to be coughing up evidence that the islanders secretly receive all their money from the British government? because it seems that he abandoned that joke fairly quickly, and is now desperately playing for time as he stops off in Italy until he can think of an “argument” doesn't so instantly fall apart under the slightest scrutiny

    and when the man your nation elects to be your official representative towards the entire world has less class, charm and basic intelligence than the bloated corpse of Qaddafi, and whom seems intent on showing just how deeply delusional, pathetic, obnoxious and above all impotent Argentina really is, you really have to wonder whether mass slaughtering the natives, stealing their land and replacing them with European settlers was really worth such a joke of a country being brought into existence.

    ah well, another nail in the coffin i guess.

    The boys a typical Argie fool,and not done his homework

    Maybe the Swiss should stamp and scream like the Argies

    Campione d'Italia and LivignoThe Italian enclave village of Campione d'Italia is totally surrounded by Switzerland's Ticino (Tessin) canton as well as Lake Lugano (Lake Ceresio) and is in the Province of Como, whilst Livigno, a small and remote mountain resort town, is in the Italian province of Sondrio. Although part of the EU, they are excluded from the customs union and VAT area, with Livigno's tax status dating back to Napoleonic times.[2] Moreover, legal tender in Campione d'Italia is the Swiss Franc, even with the euro widely accepted.[

    During World War II, the US Office of Strategic Services (OSS, the predecessor of the CIA) maintained a unit in Campione and used it for operations into Italy.[citation needed] At the time the pro-Nazi Italian regime did not have control over the exclave. The Swiss turned a blind eye to the situation as long as the Americans kept a low profile. Separate stamps were issued during this period

    given the fact we are one of the most economically, geopolitically, and militarily powerful nations as well as one of the most influential cultural powers on earth, i would say infinitely more people care about the UK than who care about a diseased third world hellhole built on the land of slaughtered innocents.

    thats why our UN representative is right now doing his Job at the UN, and was formerly the President of the Security Council, whereas your one is on a self pitying tour of whoring the dignity of his “nation” in a futile quest for anything resembling genuine support.

    still i guess bitter jealousy is understandable given your situation.

    I don't see ambassador Arguello's problem. Britain isn't denying Argentina the right to patrol its own waters or denying South America the right to exercise sovereignty over its territory.

    It's just that the Falkland Islands, South Georgia and the South Shetland Islands have waters of their own. And they are not Argentine. Get used to it!

    I wonder how Argentina would feel if Colombia suddenly turned round and said that it thought it should exercise sovereignty over South Georgia? That possibility is implicit in Arguello's words.

    But, of course, it's merely indicative that Argentines don't have a brain cell between their bum cheeks, never mind about where human beings keep theirs.

    And in case anyone thinks that my last comment implies that Argentines aren't human, I need to set the record straight. I'm not implying it, I'm saying it.

    Argentina must focus on education and innovation to become a leader in the region and in the world, because as it is, this south american country has not created a single item yet that the world has been benefited from.
    There is ample room to development in medicine, space, marine world, sustain economic development and health, so Argentina go and search for it.

    You right, anyway let me add that Arguello´s excelent job is only one of many tools in “Take two for Tango” tour context and Argentina´s diplomacy for the future....when Arguello finish his time, there´ll be another one and later another one and son on until infinitum every time stronger......until recover in peace Malvinas Islands to Argentina, their legal owners.

    just looking how our dear invaders reacts seem that is a touche nerve somewhere.

    Logically this Argentina´s policy is the right way....in peace and without lost the main goal, step by step with smart moves.

    And yes...you mess with Argentina, you´ll mess not only with Unasur (btw, anyone see the Unsasur Defense Council statments ?) rather with complete LatAm and with some BIG players...guess who are :)

    Allthough most people in this forum denies it, or make fun at it, arguello is telling the truth, everybody knows that we can't patroll and explote the natural recources from the islands, if we dont get a licence firstly from the islander government, like all the foreign nations must to do, it doesen't consider that argentina has right on the islands, which is very arguable, but at the same time, it rejects to resume the negotiations for the sovereignty which is the main problem of this question. In the same way that the islanders defend their right to self determination, we defend also our territorial integrity, and that's why it's necesary that the three parts can find a fair solution for the sovereignty issue, which must be discussed, no matter if the islanders wish it or not, none resolution from the u. n affirms that the negotiations for the sovereignty must be resumed only if the population from the islands wish it, the rejection of the islanders and the u. k. are just a hipocrite and pathetic excuse, which purpose, is to keep argentina out from the islands.
    On the other hand, when c. f. k said before the u. n. that argentina is not asking the u. k. to comply with the resolutions under the recognizement of the sovereignty, that destroys the ignorant argument that you invoke all the time, that holds that the only one outcome for argentina, is that the islands are only under our sovereignty, she is saying that we are disposed to find a fair solution for the sovereignty issue.

    Yes. Your are completely and utterly 100% correct. We don't deny this.

    You're wrong Axel. You're wrong.

    As for “pathetic argumets”: Self determination is a human right(nomatter if you accept this or not - it's a fact.) and is therefore not a pathetic argument, Axel.

    “is to take the dispute to the court, but if none of the two nations propose it, that's because they are not sure that they are going to win”

    You can keep peddling this rubbish as much as you like Axel, even you don't believe this. Why would we keep taking Argentina to the ICJ over this issue when the last THREE times we tried to Argentina never showed up? I know it was over the other islands but if your government is SO SURE about there case, why didn't they show?

    Also. We hold all the cards. We have the islands....Why would we need to take you to coutry to “win” something we already have?

    How can we Islanders sit down across the table and discuss our future with Argentina when Argentina:

    1- Has made it clear that any talks can only have ONE final result- The Transfer of Sovereignty to Argentina.

    2- Repeatedly Threatens and attempts to Bully us and our friends and neighbours at EVERY possible opportunity. Most of these threats are a laughable farce we know - but they are unpleasant words all the same.

    Answer me this question - Would you want to sit down and talk with a stranger who said he wanted to take over your house and home - regardless of what you think is right - and at the same time is throwing stones at you and your windows anyway?
    Yes - or - No?

    ZETHE. ISLANDER1.
    ZETHE: In the same way that the u. k. suggested argentina in 1947 that it would accept to take the question of the sandwich and the south georgia to the court, it should do the same now but with the dispute for the islands, in 1885 argentina had propose the u. k. to take the question to the arbitration, you can read it in my survey, but it rejected that posibility. I will always insist that if none of the two nations proposes to give that step, it's because both are not sure that they are going to win, i respect your opinion if you dont think like me, but i dont aggree on your analysis, i really think that if in 1947 the u. k. suggested argentina to take the question for the dependencies to the court, it was because surelly it was sure that it had a solid case to present, and it thought that it could win, however it never proposed the same for the malvinas-falkland question.
    In the same way that the islanders defend the right to self determination, we defend our territorial integrity, and only a judgement from the i. c. j can affirm if that right is really applicable for them or not, and what country more relevant rights on the islands.
    ISLANDER: Our constitution can say whatever about our claim, all the resolutions only call the two parts to negotiate, in fact if you heard the statement by c. f. k before the u. n, she affirmed that we are not asking the u. k. to resume the negotiations under the recognizement of the sovereignty, we are asking to comply with some of the 10 resolutions from the u. n, which call both nations to resume the negotiations, she is telling you that we woulden't accept only that the islands are only our sovereignty, she is telling you that we want a fair and negotiated solution, on the other hand, chancellour timerman said before the u. n also that argentina has always been disposed to renew the safeguards and the guarantees that had been negotiated with the u. k. before 1982, so, what you say is false.

    1885 – In a response to the British protest, on January 2nd, Foreign Minister Ortiz suggests in a letter that; ” … the postponed discussion be reopened again… and resolved by the friendly means and law that today civilised nations adopt to solve questions of this type .. “.

    http://falklandstimeline.wordpress.com/1850-1899/

    Bit vague Axel - no specific request to negotiate the terms of an agreement to go to arbitration.

    At least when Britain tried we pushed it all the way.

    As for now - why should we? We have everything - and as Maggies said, ”In 1955, the British Government applied unilaterally to the International Court of Justice against encroachments on British sovereignty in the dependencies by Argentina. Again, the court advised that it could not pursue the matter since it could act only if there was agreement between the parties recognising the court’s jurisdiction.

    In 1977, Argentina, having accepted the jurisdiction of an international court of arbitration on the Beagle Channel dispute with Chile, then refused to accept its results. It is difficult to believe in Argentina’s good faith with that very recent example in mind.

    There is no reason, given the history of this question, for Britain, which has sovereignty and is claiming nothing more, to make the first move. It is Argentina that is making a claim. If Argentina wanted to refer it to the International Court, we would consider the possibility very seriously. But in the light of past events it would be hard to have confidence that Argentina would respect a judgment that it did not like.”

    http://falklandstimeline.wordpress.com/1850-1899/

    YOU want ICJ justice- YOU take us there !

    but first you'd have to get your Government to sign up to the ICJ.

    As for the rest - try telling Cristina to publicly state that she will consider the islanders independence as an outcome of negotiations!

    On the basis of the British invasion of Río de la Plata I have been able to establish that Argentina is in fact owned by Great Britain.

    I have been tabling a series of motions at the UN in order to officially establish this claim to Argentina. There is historical president for this, on the basis of an almost 200 year invasion of the Falkland Islands by a German and some British ex patriots, Argentina claims the Falkland Islands.

    I can establish as historical fact that Río de la Plata was invaded by Britain and that this claim was never renounced, there is over 200 years of continued British claim to Argentina.

    This makes all Argentines suject to British law and taxation. I am planning to get Buenos Aires renamed Port of Britain. Argentina will be called Bairdland, after the leader of British forces in the first occupation of Río de la Plata.

    It is important to state that this did not happen just once - as in the Argentine claim to the Falklands - but twice !

    Axel, Sorry But we have 30 years exeperience of BROKEN PROMISES from successive Argentine Govts!
    Your Presidents always try to say the “right” things in the UN General Assembly - would not look very good there if they actually said what they really want! Words in the GA are meaningless and of no value - we both know that.

    It is backed up by countless statements by your ForeignMinisters and others over the years, and Presidents.
    Words like- we(the Islanders) have no rights - we are irrelevant - etc etc .
    All is reinforced by attitudes like:
    Threatening Int Shipping Lines with Blackmail unless they drop business with the Islands.
    Breaching of IATA regulations by banning civilian overflights of Arg territory by another nation,s commercial aircraft.
    Breaching UN Maritime convention rules of the right of free passage of vessels through your end of the Straits of Magellan by demanding that vessels declare cargo and destination etc with the threat of stopping and arrest. Vessel Captains with balls though call the bluff on this and simply refuse to co-operate other than the usual courtesy signals on the assumption that not even CFK is stupid enough to start a major war by firing at an unarmed civilian ship!
    Int Telephone Exchanges that operate through Arg refuse to acknowledge or handle phone traffic to the Islands- code -500+number.

    Repeatedly hassle and abuse innocent tourists who board a vessel in the Islands and then disembark in Ushuaia.

    Repeatedly try and get the Islands representatives banned from such bodies as International Fisheries Conservation meetings,Veterinary symposiums, Amateur Sports associations in S America.

    Walked out of and refuse any form of co-operation on information related to direct Fisheries Conservation and stock management in the SW Atlantic.

    REHOYT. ISLANDER1. ZETHE.
    ZETHE: If you have the islands, ¿then why did the u. k. suggest argentina in 1947 that it would accept to take the question for the dependencies to the court?, i insist that if it did it, it was because it thought that it had a good case to present, and thought also that surelly it could win, however none of the two nations proposes the same for the malvinas-falkland question, i had nothing more to add.
    REHOYT: I respect your opinion but, i think it's irrelevant to use what happened in 1977 to express that maybe you have doubts about the acceptation of argentina of the judgements from the court, in 1977 we had a dictatorship, but since 1983 we are a democratic nation, in fact we took the question of the problem that had with uruguay to the court, and both countries accepted perfectly the judgement, we still have some difficulties but they will be solved.
    Respecting the 1885 proposal, anyone can make a diferent interpretation, for me it's perfectly clear that it's suggesting to take dispute to the arbitration.
    ISLANDER: I respect the doubts that you have, in fact in same aspects i dont like the way that our government handles the question, it doesen't do anything to try to build a better relation with the islanders, but i value so much the defense that it does in all the forums about our rights.
    On the other hand, i really think that the actual scenario is the result of the lack of negotiations, i have always said as long as the u. k. and the islanders insist on rejecting to resume the negotiations for the sovereignty of the islands, which is the man problem, it's expectable that we have more and more problems, both are not acting correctly, beside, we can make planty of speculations about what might happen if the countries decide to resume the negotiations, but as long as it doesen't happen, words are taken by the win, the most important are the facts.

    Currently, and for as long as the Kirschener policy continues it is so easy to say no - The current Arg Govt makes it a sure thing!

    Dear Argenwhines,
    Is it not sufficient that you have the eight largest nation in the world? The Falkland were never yours. You are not the former Spanish empire. Before embarking on Imperialist dreams, get your mainland house in order. Things like your economy, corruption and so much more. Like Hebe Bonafides foreign bank accounts. Cristina's connection to the looting of funds. Read that book called, “The History of Argentina”! There you will learn that your poor suffering country has been totally buggered by it's disgustingly corrupt leaders and labor unions. I recently visited the Falklands for 2 weeks and interviewed many residents. Not a single one wants to be part of your disastrous rats nest, not a one. As for some of you red hot Argys: First thing tomorrow, go to your local Farmacia and ask for PROZAC or Fluoexitina, 20mg and take 2 a day for the rest of the CFK catastrophy. But remember, as always you will get what is coming to you, getting screwed by your government, after all you voted her in by 54%. Not saying much for you or the opposition that could not get their act together! But knowing your country, they were probably paid off with big Land grants in Patagonia or Rio Negro.

You already know that i think that both sides are not acting correctly, as long as your side continues rejecting to discuss a fair solution for the main problem (the sovereignty), this is evident that we are going to have more a more problems. You have no excuses to reject to resume the negotiations, no body wants to subdue your people in this country, nor the gov., nor no body.

    Right again Marvin :-)

    1955 – On May 4th, Britain unilaterally places the dispute over South Georgia, the South Shetland Islands, the South Sandwich Islands and Graham Land before the International Court of Justice at the Hague. ” … Differences have existed between the Governments of the United Kingdom and of the Republic of Argentina for a number of years, concerning pretensions advanced by the Republic in 1925, and at various dates thereafter, to the sovereignty of certain Antarctic and sub-Antarctic territories which belong to the United Kingdom under prior, long-standing, and well-established legal titles, dating from, at latest, the period 1775-1843. The territories in dispute between the two countries form part of the Falkland Islands Dependencies, consisting of already existing British possessions, which were proclaimed as such and formally placed under the administration of the Government of the Colony of the Falkland Islands by Royal Letters Patent of July …”

    On August 1st, the Argentine Foreign Minister writes, ” .. The Argentine Government has several times had occasion to indicate in notes addressed to Her Britannic Majesty’s Embassy in Buenos Aries that it cannot consent to the question of sovereignty over the Antarctic Territories of Argentina which it is sought to raise being referred for decision to any International Court of Justice or Arbitration Tribunal. By this present note, my Government reaffirms its refusal in the most express way with regard to the jurisdiction of this Court and with regard to any possibility that it should be seised as such to deal with this case.”

    Argentina elsewhere refers to a ‘.. fundamental principle in accordance with which territorial sovereignty cannot be submitted for discussion or put in issue ..’ and states that the matter is too ” .. self-evident to require judicial determination..”.

    I really don't think there are 'Thoughts of Empire', Isolde.

    Even the 'disturbed' presidents Mugabe and Amin never extended their imagination beyond their borders.
    There are some powerful similarities between CFK, Mugabe and Amin, and - similarly - I think that her TFI-talk is rhetoric for internal manipulation rather than serious 'Thoughts of Empire'.

    'Command of the South Atlantic' - to win exploitation area - is something else, however'.

    Argentina might assume a Somali Strategy to marine traffic around the region using (government) surrogates to discourage, board and impound pending payment of penalties for 'illegal transit'.
    World marine traffic of a certain size cannot ply the Panama and is therefore 'at risk'.
    We see it happening in the South China Sea, so it is not impossible in 'Argentina's Ocean'.

    Once again Axel confuses negotiating an end to the dispute over sovereignty with a transfer of sovereignty. There is a massive difference between these two things.

    For the former the UK always has been and is prepared to negotiate, for the latter the rights of the Falkland Islanders take precedence, the UK's hands are tied buy the UN Charter and a raft of UN Resolutions.

    It's high time Argentina got to grips with the difference between these two things and high time Argentina acquainted itself with the universal human rights it pretends to uphold.

    Argentina might assume a Somali Strategy to marine traffic around the region using (government) surrogates to discourage, board and impound pending payment of penalties for 'illegal transit'.
    World marine traffic of a certain size cannot ply the Panama and is therefore 'at risk'.

    The Argies will have to do what they do best, play with themselves

    Panama Canal Celebrates Anniversary with New Locks

    http://www.designnews.com/document.asp?doc_id=230505

    In 2014 for its 100-year anniversary, the Panama Canal Authority is modernizing and expanding the canal between the Atlantic and Pacific. The construction includes installation of new locks to the two oceans, each with three lock chambers, and will allow much bigger ships than before to pass through the Panama Canal.

    Argentine's around the world demand UN and NATO to take action against the occupation of Islas Malvinas Argentina or to allow for a nuclear defence program to be build in Argentina to protect the main land from any farther occupation and theft of land in Argentina. that simple pirats your days are numbered and I wouldn't eat that apple if I where you.

    REDHOYT. J. A. ROBERT. BRITON.
    Redhoyt: In the same way that arg rejected to discuss the question of the dependencies to the court, you rejected our proposal of arbitration of 1885, i know you dont consider that proposal, but like it or not, it existed, on the other hand, your country didn't propose the same for the malvinas-falkland dispute, it reaffirms once and again what i think about it, if none of the two nations proposes to take the question to the court, it's because both are not sure that they can win.
    J. A. ROBERT: In the same way that the islanders claim for the right to self determination, we claim for our territrial integrity, none resolution affirms that the negotiation for the sovereignty must be resumed only if the islanders wish it, and none of them neather affirm that the u. k. should transfer the sovereignty of the islands to argentina, both should resume the negotiations for the sovereignty which is the main problem. In the same way that the u. k. suggested argentina in 1947 to take the question of the dependencies to the court, it should do the same now but with the dispute for the islands, however if none of the two nations proposes it, it's because both think that they can loose.
    BRITON: Of course i believe in democracy, that's why i think the question should be taken to the court, because this is evident that your ountry is not disposed to discuss about the sovereignty which is the main issue.

    The people of the Falkland Islands do not want to be connected to Argentina. Argentina need to leave them alone.

    @ 107 Millet

    Islanders are in Argentina.
    How can´t you be connected to it when you´re occupying its territory?
    If the British didn´t want to be connected to Argentina they should have stayed home.
    We didn´t bring you here... so don´t blame us and get over it.

    108 Islas Malvinas

    No, we aren't in Argentina.
    No, we are not occupying your territory.
    We are 'at home'.
    We don't have anything to 'get over'. You appear to be the ones with the problem.
    So dry your eyes, princess.

    If Argentina was not such a weak country, they could drive Briton out of the Falklands. But allas all they can do is continually try to talk them out. Frankly, the world is getting tried of their weak “demands”
