Falklands willing to meet Timerman ‘any time’ for rational conversation as ‘one human being to another’
The Argentine government refusal to speak to the Falkland Islands representatives is ‘unacceptable” in this day and age of modern democracies. Nevertheless the two Falklands lawmakers currently in London have said they would be very happy to meet with Foreign Minister Hector Timerman at any time this week to have “a rational conversation as one human being to another”.

Feb 06th, 2013 - 08:46 pm - Link - Report abuse 0He was too scared and ashamed to face them.
The systematic political & economic persecution of the Falkland Island inhabitants by the Argentine state is criminal
Feb 06th, 2013 - 08:48 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The Falkland Islands are listed as a non-self-governing territory at the UN because its inhabitants were subject to alien domination under British colonial rule & UN Charter Chapter XI Declaration on Non-Self-Governing-Territories covers the case of the Falkland Islands
The fact remains the matter of the future of the Falkland Islands is a bilateral issue, between the contemporary inhabitants of the Falkland Islands & the lawful Administrating Country of the Falkland Islands, Great Britain
Argentina is in breach of its UN obligations under UN Charter Chapter XI Declaration Regarding Non-Self-Governing Territories, UN Charter Chapter XIV International Court of Justice & Article 103
The UN Treaty came into force on 24 October 1945; Article 2 applies to the de facto territory of each member state at that time. As such with respect to the self-determination of the inhabitants of the Falkland Islands, only Great Britain as the Administering Country with 180 year continuous sovereignty of the Non-Self-Governing Territory can claim disruption of its national unity & territorial integrity by any change of the political status of the Falkland Islands under the UN Treaty; Argentina has no established rights under the UN Treaty in respect of disruption of national unity or territorial integrity
Argentina has no legal basis for its claim that human right of self-determination does not apply to the inhabitants of the non-self-governing territory of the Falkland Islands
Argentina has no legal claim to British possessions in the South Atlantic
The fact is whilst Argentina is unable to prove its controversial claims at the UN International Court of Justice, the Falkland Islands inhabitants may proceed as they see fit without let or hindrance by Argentina
Interference by Argentina in the lawful process of self-determination is an unlawful act of aggression
I guess this guy didn't hear UK did the same to UN of white people and Argentina. Typical english culture pure double standards and racism. We should go back to the days when you could hunt down and hang thieves, pirates and murderers, we are still on time to brings days back. I Must say it again, maybe UK doesn't like the shoe they made for someone else's foot.

Oh yes!! Bring it on, I'm up for that!!!!!
Then we could hang the Argentines who stole land from their neighbours.
Then we could hang the Argentines who stole land from innocent Indians and who then murdered them all
Then we could hang the Argentines who push innocent people and Nun's out of planes...............
Then we could hang the Argentines who invaded the falkland islands back in 1982.
My question to you is, after we've done all that, would there be any Argentines left????
By the way, how is Canada???
The facts are that the UN International Court of Justice has never upheld any Argentine sovereignty claims over the Falkland Islands or any other British South Atlantic Territory
Feb 06th, 2013 - 09:50 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The fact is Argentina acquiesced to British sovereignty of the Falkland Islands by ratification by the Argentine Congress of the Arana-Southern Treaty in 1850, whilst great Britain exercised its sovereignty ever since
The 1965 UN General Assembly Resolution 2065 notes the existence of a dispute concerning the sovereignty of the Falkland Islands & invites Argentina & Great Britain to negotiate to find a peaceful solution
The 1965 UN GA Resolution 2065 is non-binding & does not over-ride binding UN Charter Articles 73 & 74 thus the Falkland Islanders remain lawfully free to decide their own political status independent of the wishes of either Great Britain or Argentina
However, according to UN GA Resolution 2065 any solution to Argentina's dispute must bear in mind:
1. the provisions and objections of the UN Charter
2. Resolution 1514 on the Declaration of the Granting of Independence for Non-Self-Governing Territories
3. the interests of the population of the Falkland Islands
Argentine proposals for a solution to their dispute are non-conformant to UN GA Resolution 2065
In 1982 Argentina terminated the negotiations under UN GA Resolution 2065 between Great Britain & Argentina and decides to resolve its dispute by use of force and breaches the peace by its unlawful invasions of South Georgia & Falkland Islands. Argentina disobeys UN Security Council Resolution 502. Great Britain invokes its right to self-defense under UN Charter Article 51 & defeats Argentina and lawfully reestablishes British sovereignty according to the principle of uti possidetis under international law. British sovereignty over the Falkland Islands is fact
Thus Argentina is a third party to the process of self-determination by the inhabitants of the Falkland Islands & is impotent to halt this lawful process

Argentina has been clumsily applying the old Sun Tzu principle of knocking on as many windows and doors that it can, and at the same time ignoring all laws and humanitarian considerations apertaining to the target concerned. It can take decades to get anywhere, and requires the sustainment of continued source of a stable goverment and their major population support.
Feb 06th, 2013 - 10:04 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It is unlikely that the present govermnent will be there in “twenty years” time; and certainly Argentina won't have Mr Timerman's talent for diplomacy. In any case, by that time the environmental situation will have changed the political one whatever it may be by that time.

Argentina has never colonized anyone's land. It annexed in war, through treaties, and by purchases. Very different.
Feb 07th, 2013 - 01:14 am - Link - Report abuse 0Just like you Brits love to say Argentina lost in the Falklands, fair enough, Argentina:
Spain took away Mendoza and San Juan provinces from Chile (before independence)
Went to war with Spain and won (independence)
Went to war with Brazil and won (Brazil lost Uruguay, and most of Iguazu falls)
Fought a joint French-British fleet and won (control of the entire lower Parana Basin)
Went to war with Indian nations and won (the pampas and northern Patagonia)
Went to war with Paraguay and won (Chaco and Formosa Provinces)
Persuaded Bolivia to cede all of the southern Bolivian Puna (most of Jujuy)
Arbitrated with Chile and was awarded 85% of the Puna Atacama (western Salta)
Persuaded Welsh/British settlers province to fall under Argentina annexation (Chubut and Santa Cruz)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puna_de_Atacama_dispute
Persuaded Chile to reach an agreement to give over half of Tierra del Fuego (today's province)
Persuaded Uruguay to cede Martin Garcia Island, creating the current exclave.
Arbitrated over the far southern islands and mostly lost (Chile got 95% of them)
Went to War with the United Kingdom over the Falklands and lost.
Arbitrated over Laguna del Desierto and won 100% (western Santa Cruz)
And those explain ALL of Argentina's expansionist policies and fully explain today's map of Argentina.
No colonization period. Just annexation, wars, treaties, cedes, and arbitrations.

Where were “Argentina's colonies”. I'll give you the chance to look them up in a time-specific map.
How long should I give you to find them? 6 months? 1 year?
What part of annexation, war, treaty, cedes, and arbitrations don't you get?
When you annex territory and the people consent, or don't resist, it stands legally.
When you go to war and win, I think Brits of all people would agree, any territorial gains stand.
When you get a country to cede land formally, duh.
When you sign a treaty and the other country consciously gives you land, ditto.
When you go to arbitration and another country or the Pope decide and give you land.... hello?
No colonies.

Feb 07th, 2013 - 03:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Simple, widebrain. Ecuador had a precolumbian population of probably 3-4 million, and a much “slower” process of Spanish settlement over 3 centuries.
Precolumbian Argentina at best had 300.000-500.000 people (in an area 15 times as large or more as Ecuador), 80% of which were found in the northwest, the only area with agricultural civilization influenced by the Inca.
The Pampas only supported basic hunter-gatherers, and as you can see all over the world if you actually where taught anything in your failing UK schools, hunter-gatherer at best can form groups of 20 individuals. NEVER has a civilization with towns and population centers been based on nomads.
Then, for 300+ years, the Spanish barely settled in Argentina. In fact they settled in Chile much more (Capitania de Chile had much more population). Argentina was too cold and extreme, especially the Pampas in winter with the cold winds and Patagonia all year round, plus the severe storms.
So the population density of natives compared to the rest of the americas, including North America, was negligible. In the 1850s and only then mass migration started, and for 100 years till the 1950s 7 million Europeans and middle easterners arrived.
Now you tell me what happens to the genetics of 200k one one type when swamped by 7 million of another type.
Warming to British : you may have to use your brain.

You appear to be excusing the Spanish colonisation of the Americas on the grounds that they 'didn't do an Auschwitz deal on them'. In fact it wasn't colonisation at all, because you killed them in battle, right?
Then you say you weren't colonising them because they consented, or didn't resist. Well what were they doing fighting in battles then?
Then you appear to say it's OK if the Pope gives it to you. Well he wasn't their Pope, you moron.
I guess this is another of those irregular verbs;
You colonise
We annex
They joyfully cede their territory and become part of the glorious Republic of Argentina

All Argentine and Latin American and the rest of the English-speaking world are proud as our President Cristina Fernandez Kirchner and Foreign Minister Hector Timerman defend our rights over the Malvinas Argentinos against colonialism, racism and imperialism of the 21st century.
They support this claim such important bodies as the UN Assembly Resolution 2065, the decolonization committee UN, OAS, CELAC, UNASUR and MERCOSUR and several Nobel Peace Prizes as Adolfo Perez Esquivel, Mairead Corrigan Maguire of Northern Ireland, the Guatemalan Rigoberta Menchu Tum, the Desmond Tutu, Jody Williams of the U.S., and Iranian Shirin Ebadi

Feb 07th, 2013 - 04:34 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Take 'Nostrol' for example. He clearly knows little about true life in Argentina, and his opinions inform his history, not history informing his opinions. He seems to think 'annexation' through the brutal massacre of foreign tribes, followed by their brutal oppression is in some way morally better than colonisation. He actually feels it is okay to annex entities in this way, because of his adherence to a culture that reinforces 'theft' as being a good thing.
Semantics aside, as we are really talking about the opression of peoples and repression of their self-determination, which we all know to be 'morally' wrong by the meters of western culture.
Nostrol will not be able to understand this, because his main concern, like Timmerman's is in the continuous theft of other people's property. They're not concerned about the people themselves, because that's not in the way they think. They're pathological incapable or conditioned to ignore the feelings of the people they steal from, and ignoring them is simply a factor in this.
Raul on the other hand is just a block-head who repeats the same tripe over and over without actually reading any of the responses, because he's not capable of constructing arguments to deal with the questions that result from his copypasta.

The war does not give rights.
It is the doctrine Varela From this perspective, argued that Varela had to demonstrate solidarity with the fallen, renouncing the fruits of victory-territorial attitude as the Argentine foreign minister also pointed Brazil should adopt a policy and “Americanism” and recognition of the survivors.
The Argentine Carlos Saavedra Lamas Nobel Peace Prize in 1936, applied the doctrine and stopped the war between Paraguay and Bolivia.

Quite the contrary. You are always having trouble twisting legal and historical interpretations, regardless of social processes and the context or historical context in which it develops colonialism, racism and imperialism in English 500 years of history and seek to keep it in the 21st century .
Here we go again. It was a Spanish colony that the British attacked, you did not exist then. Britian was at war with Napoleonic France and their allies Spain, not your non existant nation. God how many times do you need telling. Why am I so suprised to hear the rubbish that Timmerman comes out with, you are all at it. Revisionism, revisionism, all is revisionism you.

The Falkland Islanders have and intend to keep them despite all the gushing hyperbole here.
You say ARGENTINA is a democratic country, you vote for who want to run their country as the Falkland Islanders want to vote who they want to run their country. They have their own government.
You do not want to understand this concept.
The islanders are precisely British English. They have a democracy like that if they lived in London. Their representatives are in London. Not a country. No country recognizes them as.
They have their own government.
Of course I have. But is subject or depend London. Not a country. They have a governor imposed by London. Clearly they are a colony. The Decolonization Committee of the United Nations, in its resolutions, it is very clear to classify them as a colony.
They are a colony established in 1833 to oust the Argentine who lived there.
