    UK meeting with Chile, US bigging up Uruguay and no mention of RG Land which is slowly but surely being isolated on its own continent.

    @2

    nowhere.

    everyone is sick to death of them stealing, lying and whittering on constantly about the Falklands and some mythical claim to them.

    they've basically over played their hand with some very juvenile diplomacy aka stamping and crying whilst every other mature country in south america gets on with life.

    Strikes are now a daily occurrence in Rg Land. La Campora has now replaced the police force, inflation is utterly rampant, wheat production is down, no one will invest in the country and only half the population has running water.

    wouldnt be surprised if there was a military coup shortly although whether the Rg armed forces could beat La Campora in a fight is open to question.

    @3 TG
    I'm being serious. where are they! I see story after story about other S A leaders, meeeting other world leaders outside of S A , yet not one of them!. No seious conferences about mutual defence, economic coopperation, etc, etc. Outside of Nth Korea, It's not the normal way to run a country. Fuck if I can see that, why the hell can't they!!!!!

I challenge one, just one, person on this site to give me a single example of any International diplomatic initiative, they have have displayed on behalf of their continent.

    They're not licking Argtard anything, not even your pears or apples. The article is about talking to Uruguayans, who aren't corrupt people like you folk.

    6 reality check

    The economic blockage of the falklands Islands. That was a roaring success. Almost KFC's finest hour. I think that reason you haven't seen them on the world stage is because they are all too busy looking inward and Stripping Argentinaland of anything of worth and generally running the country into the ground.

    Myself, I'm waiting until they join the UN security council. There will be no end of sh*ts and giggles when that happens!!

    Argentina could become a great country if they played cricket and as such learned to stick by the rules, international treaties, trade agreements etc, etc. I recommend that the Falkland Island Government is given the job of advancing Argentina politically and economiclly. I'm sure they would do a better job than CFK and Co.

    Please don't belittle BK's queen, she is preparing a trip to..... ANGOLA. To talk about buying petroleum. The news does not say how she means to pay for it, probably with diseased lemons.

    Yes, CFK is going to Angola on the 17th May!

    Leader of the 100th Corrupt nation visits the leader of the 168th. This means there's a good chance that Angola will pull a fast one on Argentina...
