Uruguay had to stand up to a world power and deny dock access to a Royal Navy vessel on its way to the Falklands/Malvinas to retain good relations with Argentina, admitted the Uruguayan President Jose Mujica in Guadalajara where he met with members of the Uruguayan colony in Mexico.

Disclaimer & comment rulesI am not sure if European Union fans in Europe could understand this. Our union is not the same that unites Greece with Germany. We have a common history in this continent. We have all been divided by european Empires during the last centuries. Most of us also come from european immigrants who had to escape from a continent that was expulsing its own people.
Nov 17th, 2011 - 06:33 am - Link - Report abuse 0Cheers for Mujica!
And I don't agree with this idea that this artichle gives about a Mujica who doesn't like admiting that he had to deny support to a Royal navy. He is not the kind of politician who would have benefited from serving the Queen of England. His values are not those, even if Argentina and Malvina's issue wasn't in the middle.
But still happy to allow fishing vessels to call in and to negotiate trade deals with the FI. This action is window dressing and is a fairly simple way to please Argentina while not affecting relations with the UK and the FI.
Nov 17th, 2011 - 07:08 am - Link - Report abuse 01 - So you admit you're immigrants? Much like... the people of the Falkland Islands.
Nov 17th, 2011 - 07:38 am - Link - Report abuse 0I do like this man, Mujica. However, I do believe that the Uruguayan policy of not permitting British Naval ships to visit is very short sighted, and could easily lead to reprisals by the Uk in the form of economic difficulties. But, whatever, it is his 'backyard' and I suppose he has to make a show of fawning to his much bigger and more dangerous neighbour, Argentina. Too bad his notions of allowing the people to decide their own fate does not extent to the current legal residents of the Falkland Islands, or as ho incorrectly calls them, the Malvinas. Too bad, also, the UK and Argentina can't come to some sensible remedy to this ongoing situation. I suppose, ultimately, it will be Independence for the Falkland Islands some day - and then dare the Argentinians to attack. Or be good neighbours.

Nov 17th, 2011 - 09:51 am - Link - Report abuse 0More typical outrageous arrogance. You just don't get it, do you? These countries pay lip service to supporting Argentina because they have to, and behind your back they do everything they can to be good neighbours to us. That's the truth, whether you agree with it or not.
It's not for you as a person or a country to tell the president of another sovereign nation what their values are. In fact you shouldn't be interfering in another country's business at all.
As for 'serving the queen of England' by letting a ship in on a routine visit? You're sounding like an idiot, with your frantic bitterness. Calm down and grow up.
Its not often I agree with you Monty.Of course Uruguay does whatever is in its national interest.It has close relations with Argentina but also wants good relations with other countries who could be of benefit to it.Exactly the same as in Europe where Italy lreland Spain and France to name but four try to juggle good relations with its neighbour and an important country on the other side of the World whose trade is important.Hardly rocket science

So why did Britain allow South Africa, Australia, Canada, India, Signapore, Jamaica etc. etc. etc. to gain independence, while Britain does everything it can to hold onto the Falklands, which offer a tiny amount of resource and financial benefits for Britain when compared to the above? It just doesn’t make any sense.

If you force others to accommodate, that you cannot, then an alternative will be found, then their will be no need to go to the south Americans for anything,
Or course the Falklands will still trade with whom they wish,
But Great Britain, can and will find an alternative, then you will have lost her presents in your waters,
And what will that achieve.

1. But this contradicts other Argentine statements regarding Britain holding onto the Falklands to steal its resources (Arguello and many Argentine Mercopress posters). Surely Australia, South Africa, India and Canada have infinitely more resources to steal than in the Falklands!
2. Britain could easily bolster its Antarctic claim through Australia....
3. The Falklands does stand on its own two feet. The Falklands are self-sufficient, and the Falklands Government even made a surplus of £19m in the last financial year, mainly from Oil and Fisheries revenues, and good investment returns. Britain provide us defence, which would not be required if one of our neighbours did not invade the Falklands 30 years ago and continues to play an aggressive role.
Your statement is completely incorrect and even contradicts other Argentine anti-British/Falkland comments....

strange that the very worst cases of spineless and corrupt politicians in certain nations are merely the norm in Argentina (though that is most likely due to a largely spineless and corrupt populace)
pity Uruguay does not look to the lessons of history, that embarrassing yourself to appease a corrupt nation of shrieking fascists does nothing but make them bite for more. and while Argentina is utterly unable to harm britain or the islanders, they now know they can bully Uruguay while this idiot is in charge. When the islanders become even more self sufficient with oil money, new air links to St Helena and become even more happy and prosperous despite Argentina's hysteria, whose to say they wont lash out at Uruguay to try and restore some of their macho credentials?
hell if they thought the (failed) attempt to ethnically cleanse a peaceful island community was a heroic thing, and that outright genocide of innocent aboriginals in the conquest of the desert is something to be celebrated on their money, i doubt trying to torture a fellow south American nation will be met with any objection from the openly fascist-wannabe Argentine population

One of the MLAs (who was born in the Falklands), who was elected by the people of Falklands announced the surplus. It is true. Our own little Government run in the Falklands, which does not have anything to do with Britain, made a £19m surplus in the last financial year. This is a fact. For you to deny something I know as a fact and to be true, only serves to prove you are the one in fact brainwashed. Wake up.
I actually truly enjoy how you (and other Argentines) completely dismiss everything when I say, it just proves to me how indoctrinated you and your fellow countrymen are. I also love it when you deny something I know and can see with my owen eyes, when you are hundreds of miles away and never been to the Falklands and have no links to the Falklands.

We, Argentinians around Rio de La Plata than to another corners of Argentina, even have more things in common with them than we do with another corners of our country.

We could have another governments in here, governments who take neighbours as enemies. But not today, I am sorry, but this is not the reality and it is good to tell the truth: the governments of Argentina and Uruguay are more than aliates nowadays.
The strong empires/nations around the globe have always tried to split Latinamerica into as many different little countries as possible. So I amnot surprised to read artichles like this one. So many foreign interests would like to see us fighting... Am I wrong on this?

Arg doesnt imposses others countries to choose us. Is a reality we choose between us. Millars of argentines go to Uruguay on vacations, the more rich and in one month only they benefit a lot Uruguay. The same way happens the other way.
Fuc***land islands seems to trade with Uruguay, buying onions ,embryons, beef.
and we have had the guts to face issues by our own in 1982, although its not the way. and we did it alone, as far as I know your country helped britian interests instead. so stop saying nonsense.
and if this is not a peaceful zone, then you can go on vacations to Libya, Afghanistán, Iraq, pacificate zones by NATO and enjoy your vacations. send us photos.
such stupidity is dropping from some heads as they cant see more than what they have in front their eyes. im talking in general not in personnal way.

You're not funny or clever. ''Fuc***land islands'' ??? Pitiful. You must be desperate.
@15 South Africa, Australia, Canada, India, etc... can stand on their own feet. And Malvinas case is different. They hold it for Anctarctica.

it will be interesting, in the new year,
Nov 19th, 2011 - 08:35 pm - Link - Report abuse 0When the new type 45, goes in his first deployment,
And a small task of ships heading south, for the 30th celebrations.
It will be interesting what south American countries want or allow the royal navy to visit them,
What are the chances that they are welcomed, or refused, [anyone ]
Who gives a shit whether Uruguay allows port facilities for the Type 45, I understand its range is 7,000 miles, a full 3,000 miles greater than the Type 42, so once it has bunkered at Ascension Island, it doesn't need to use a Southern Cone Port to reach either the FI or SGSSI, having thousands of miles of range to spare.
Nov 20th, 2011 - 01:09 am - Link - Report abuse 0Of course, we would be happy to visit our Chilean friends to continue the long established association between Chile and the UK, and in particular, the Chilean Navy; and also exercise with the Brazilian Navy as a part of the 2010 Bi-lateral Defence Cooperation Treaty.
If Uruguay wishes to pander to its bullying neighbour, fine, makes little difference to us does it?
However, maybe its time Uruguay grew a pair of balls and tells Argentina it doesn't believe in the fairy story its been peddling since the 1930s, and wants nothing to do with the Bi-lateral dispute between Argentina and the UK.
There is no need for any military ship in Latinamerica, or has the UK ever let a Uruguayan ship in rute to occupy a european land anywhere ever ? I guess not, so why does UK think they can bring arms everywhere they go ?? besides the british illegal aliens in Malvinas or otherways occupyers have all the freedom and democracy in their home land UK, in Islas Malvinas Argentina this pirats have as much rights as an Argentine in Canada. there is a solution to all this GTFO and quit pesting in someone elses land.

We offer them school exchanges, cricket tours, agricultural and fishing expertise..... I know which I would choose.
You might prevail in the end but it doesn't make you right.
We do this because we want to be good neighbours and live here peacefully. The 'divide, divide....' nonsense is your choice.It doesn't have to be that way.
Argentines seem to believe they have international support for their ambitions to become an Imperial power lording it over the Southern Cone nations via expanded living space to Terra del Fuego, the Beagle Channel, parts of the Chilean border, Paraguayan border, Uruguayan border, Falklands, South Georgia, South Shetland Islands, South Orkney Islands, British Antarctic Territory and Chilean Antarctic Territory.
Nov 20th, 2011 - 01:03 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The fact is the international community were almost 100% against Argentina in 1982, even Russia sided with Britain. It's a bit like Iraq's claims to Kuwait in 1990, the world including America paid lip service to Saddam Husain's demands. America even encouraged them [read wikileaks April Galespi and the Iraq conspiracy http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x4680963 ]and then when they invaded the US turned on Iraq and unleashed the mother of all international military coalitions against the Iraqi military.
What I see in the case of Argentina, is a lot of lip service from the Southern Cone to Argentina's psychotic President in order to keep her quiet from her insane OCD preoccupation with some small islands and 3,500 people. But in the shadows I'm sure the clever people see this as a way to remove Argentina from the South American power equation. A future war with Britain, would now involve NATO and the EU as both recognise British sovereignty of the Falklands, indeed the Falklands are also part of the EU. An attack on the Falklands would be an attack on NATO, the same way 911 [false flag] was defined as an attack on not just America but NATO.
Argentina is a dangerous nationalistic country, that requires political reform and democratisation. Maybe it's defeat in the coming war with the UK and NATO will help reshape Argentina and knock some sense into them?
Urugay is puppet of NWO and is run by cabal of theives. WHO care for these people? They will soon be part of Greater Argentina, like las Malvinas, Islas Sandwich del Sur, Georgias del Sur, Islas Orkney del Sur, Terra del Fuego, Chile and Paraguay.

Justa thought .
The nationalists put on the patriot record in 1982 and it is still stuck on play, while they pine for a lost war and military junta soaked in Argentine blood, they make excuses and say they had to kill the terrorists. For terrorists, read right wing government provocateurs about 100 dead to the tens of thousands murdered by their government, tortured, raped, kicked out of the back of aircraft over the sea. Operation Condor, the CIA's programme of political genocide in Latin America is now well documented but to our nationalists it is to be over looked, it doesn't exist, they can read the official documents but not see them. Show them the documents and they will see nothing. If it goes against their image of the heroic Argentine and the brave military struggle against the Amerindians, the political left and everyone else it isn't true. All across the internet, wikipedia, etc they edit anything critical of Argentina, the Conquest of the Desert read 1,500 Indians killed for attacking government troops and civilians, rather than the millions killed for no reason other than they were not European and not part of the system, everything is edited, changed, the truth becomes a lie. The Argentine right wing are a mind controller's dream come true!

And yes, we make business with the falklands Islands because it´s good for both of us. And this South Cone of America have been peacefully from the day you lost the war when you invaded a neighbor country on 1982.....from then on you have not had the capability to threat your neighbors by the force, just through your arbitrary change of the rules in business and coexistence.
and yes, we supported UK and Falklands Is. because you were a permanent threat up to June 1982 (I suffered you warm hospitality on 1979 as truck owner that neede to travel through Patagonia to reach Santiago).
