Interesting article - sounds good to me as long as the Malvinistas don't try and hi-jack it

The Indian Navy used Sea Harriers so that might be a potential source. Who knows, when the present government changes (soon we hope) and the current propaganda war dies down, maybe the UK might be more disposed to help with some memorabilia as a way of building bridges with any, more friendly, future administration.

I don't have a particular problem with the name “Malvinas” in this context - it is the Spanish name for the islands after all

Asked what his dream would be, Fioni says that, above all, he would love to see the dispute resolved for once and for all adding that he looks forward to being able to visit the Islands to see the place he has done so much to promote for himself.

He can visit the islands himself. He doesn't even need a visa like he would if he wanted to visit the USA!
