Falklands/Malvinas, a territorial integrity issue; a C24 visiting mission would have to be to Buenos Aires and London

Saturday, June 27th 2015 - 07:08 UTC

The president of the UN Decolonization Special Committee (C24), Xavier Lasso Mendoza argued that the Falklands/Malvinas issue is a territorial integrity and sovereignty dispute between two countries, and since there is no subjugated people in the Islands, if a visiting mission is to be sent, it would have to be to Buenos Aires and London, with the simple message, ”when are you going to sit and begin negotiations?

    If it's an issue of territorial integrity, then what has it got to do with the C24? Does this mean the Chairman thinks the Falklands are no longer an NSGT? Because that's what his mandate requires him to visit. And if he's not required the visit the Falklands, then surely the Falklands are none of his business?

    This latino supremacist logic is extremely hard to keep up with sometimes.

    What a totally biased moron? How is a person like this given the chair of the C24. It is pointless anyone from the Falklands ever attending this non event again its obviously attempting to step far outside its remit. Idiot.

    So get this logic right.....

    1/ The Falkland Islands are on the UN List of Non-self Governing Territories.
    2/ UN recognised Non-self Governing Territories need to be decolonised.
    3/ Such territories can be decolonised in 3 ways: independence, merging with the metropolitan power or join a third country.
    4/ Falkland Islands seemingly do not qualify for point 3.
    5/ Which means the Falkland Islands are not eligible for point 2.
    6/ And hence they do not fit the requirement for being listed as per point 1.

    Xavier you'll put yourself out of a job with logic such as that because you just stated you're irrelevant to the Falkland Islands.

    “So if we accept the visitors' mission it will have to be to Buenos Aires and London to emphasize our exhort”

    But the people allegedly needing decolonisation don't live in B.A. or London. Errr?

    @1

    “If it's an issue of territorial integrity, then what has it got to do with the C24?”

    A good reason (surely in the C24's view?) to de-list Falkland Islands and shoved to the department that deals with alleged territorial disputes-no suggestion of the ICJ by this chairman-what he is saying discreetly -it isn't our problem it's between Argentina and the UK.

    So, delist the Falklands Islands, latin numbnut.

    ”The UN has already worked on the (Falklands) issue, it's not an issue of self determination, there's no people in the islands that has not been able to express itself because of the administrative power, and thus a referendum is needed, such as in New Caledonia. What people is going to express itself? ”

    Oi Mendoza,

    'Territorial Integrity'

    'the participating states will respect the territorial integrity of the participating states. Thus, the scope of the principle of territorial integrity is confined to the sphere of relations between states.' (Para 80 ICJ Kosovo Advisory Opinion 22 July 2010).

    Fact is, it's only individual states that have signed the UN Charter so it couldn't mean anything else. Therefore territorial integrity does not impinge on the international law of self-determination and independence.

    @12. I can give you a date. It will be on 24 June 247015 AD. Just hang on for the next 245,000 years.

    By which time the majority of the population of the Earth will probably have left. Argieland will hang on hoping to get possession of the Falklands. And it will.

    Meanwhile, 250,000 miles away, the British Army Aerospace Demolition Detachment will have set of the nuclear explosions to change the Moon's orbit so that it burns off Earth's atmosphere and smashes into argieland.

    Mendoza is either really smart or really, really stupid.

    He has admited not only that he is not an impartial.

    But has stated that “...What we have is a territorial integrity and sovereign dispute issue between two countries.”.

    So he has made it clear it is nothing whatsoever to do with decolonisation.

    But instead a soverignty issue , over which the c-24 has no juristriction whatsoever.

    The British and Falkland Island governements should immediately request from Ban Ki Moon that the Falkland Islands be reoved fro the C-24 listing.
    With the caveat if Argentina wants to go to the ICJ to discuss soverignty they have one month, otherwise they accept the status quo.

    I believe it came to a head already in 1982, and was settled at that time now and for any foreseeable future. A claim based on the idea that an alleged colonial heritage two centuries ago negates the rights of people alive today is already long past its sell by date, and becomes yet more stale with every day that passes. A sane society would have recognized this long ago, but I'm an optimist, and confident that Argentina will get there in the end. I believe 25 years is the going rate, but I would say three or four times that easily, depending on the number of political and economic crises Argentina has to endure in the meantime.

    The only Territorial Integrity that has been violated has been British in 1982, since there is a bar under international law from applying a post 1945 law to an event in 1833.
    ”...It is important to note that the concept of prohibition of the use of force, which reflects the territorial integrity principle, protects territory under a States effective control and possession, not only that over which it has de jure title[2]. The fact that sovereignty over a piece of territory is disputed in no way entitles a State to use force to ‘recover’ territory which it claims; to do so would infringe the territorial integrity of the State in control of the disputed territory. Force may not be used “as a means of settling international disputes, including territorial disputes and problems concerning frontiers” (Friendly Relations Declaration)....” Territorial Integrity by Michael Wood http://pesd.princeton.edu/?q=node/271

    So the man charged with “looking after the interests of the Falkland Islanders and Gibraltarians” has turned round and stated that, in his opinion, they have no rights and he wants them handed over to hostile third parties?

    And you wonder why people think this committee has no credibility? The committee has passed its sell by date, and Mendoza should be sacked immediately.

    From the website of the UN Decolonisation Committee

    “Hoping to speed the progress of decolonization, the General Assembly adopted, in 1960, the Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples. Known as the Declaration on decolonization, it stated that all people have a right to self-determination and proclaimed that colonialism should be brought to a speedy and unconditional end”

    Well, the C24 can have no opinion on any alleged sovereignty dispute much less territorial integrity, it is neither qualified nor authorised.

    His statements are completely at odds with what Ban-Ki Moon says is the UN position and what Ban-Ki Moon says is the job of the C24 committee.

    The integrity in question here is not territorial, it is his and that of this committee, both have been found sadly wanting.

    It was the UNGA that gave the Islanders the right to self-determination a long time ago and that has confirmed that right many times since.

    This decision cannot be changed or ignored by the C24, it simply does not have the authority or competence on any level. It is morally repugnant that it should even try.

    Obsolete and completely unfit for purpose, both he and his committee.

    Paulie,
    No my family came to the Islands in 1845 - that is 170 years ago and I am now 6 generations born here. Others here are 7 and 8 - and there are even 2 who are 9 Generations born here.
    Some here carry in their blood genes the blood of an Argentine lady who along with the majority of the other civilians who were here in January 1833 elected to stay and recognise British Sovereignty - she later married and English settler and they had children and so on.
    Please explain to me and all others - How can we who have been here for 170 years - and others whose family have been here for OVER 183 years - be classed as “implants”

    Please explain to me what is the difference between us Islanders of today

    and the Argentines of Spanish and Italian origen - who took over in the 1600 and 1700s a land from its natural people - then seized independence from their mother country- Spain - and set up today,s Argentina - where the few surviving indigenous folks are only 2nd class citizens?

    Now I am not saying that those Argentines of Italian and Spanish and others descent origen are not entitled to live in argentina!

    2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurlingham_Club_(Argentina)
    3. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurlingham_Club_(Argentina)

    There are many more definitions. Thus, if the Hurlingham Club is NOT a country club then perhaps “el cara de dos ortos podridos” can illuminate us.

    can you be more retard, you fatso?
    you are posting links of the hurlingham club in LONDON, you permanent farter.

    the condition to be a country club IN ARGENTINA, where it really matters regarding this joke of “conversation” with you stinky ball of fat, is to have houses within the “predio” of the club.

    can you understand that, ball of fat?
    you have a golf course, tennis courts, rugby and hockey and football and polo fields, a club house, etc etc, and on the other hand, you have HOUSES.

    got it now, retarded fatso?

    So in Argentina, unlike every other country in the world, the description of COUNTRY CLUB is totally different. The fact that the wikipedia link didn't function is neither here nor there.

    The Hurlingham Club in Buenos Aires, whether you, boludo, like it or not is clearly a country club in the internationally accepted description.

    “the thing is all the inhabitants of the FI are british invaders, squatters, illegal occupants.
    in brief, an implanted population by the uk in argentinian territory.”

    Dear Paulie,

    If you think it is a territorial dispute, you are welcome to take your case to the ICJ and try and prove it.

    But Mendoza, being as stupid as you are, has already admitted that it is nothing to do with his corrupt “committee”. Hasn't he?

    Take it to the ICJ or shut up.

    According to Argentina, Britain implanted British settlers in 1833.

    So who came off HMS Tyne and HMS Clio?

    According to the historical records, the majority of settlers in 1833 were from South America ,and no sailors were left on the Islands by the aforementioned ships.

    This is where your bullshit unravels.

    So Mr Smart Arse, did the British implant these South American settlers?

    read again, you retarded ball of fat:
    ”Un club de campo (country club en inglés) es un complejo recreativo residencial localizado por lo general en las afueras de las ciudades, que incluye lotes construidos o por construir, independientes entre si, con acceso a zonas comunes de ocio.1 2 3 Se puede considerar un tipo de urbanización cerrada.“

    read again, you retarded ball of fat:
    ”En Argentina, la expresión “country club” comienza a utilizarse en las revistas de arquitectura de la década del treinta invocando a clubes suburbanos que combinaban instalaciones destinadas a la práctica deportiva con “viviendas residenciales” de uso temporario (“weekend” o “fin de semana”).”

    Calm down dear. We all know that the Hurlingham Club in BA was a country club set up by THE ENGLISH for the Argentines to have some sort of purpose in their lives. Surely even you can see that, of course we introduced you to the civilised side of culture, but you are unaware of that. We gave you the railways, you have not maintained them and are a travesty. Anyway here in the UK everything is hunky dory and everything works very well. Incidently, the oil companies working in the EEZ of the FALKLANDS are the following,. Noble ( American ) Edison ( French ) I believe. Premier oil, Rockhopper oil, Falkland oil and gas, Borders and Southern, Argos oil ( all UK companies )
    Anyway THE FALKLANDS has fuck all to do with Argentina and I haop it stays that way.

    lets see if you can understand 1 (ONE) thing.
    in ARGENTINA, you imbecile, a country club has to comply 2 things:
    1 to have a recreational area for sports, mostly golf, polo and rugby
    2 and to have a residential area.

    they are like gated communities with sports areas.
    is that so diifficult for you, fatty fart-blower?

    Just some questions.....

    If the C 24 says that there is no subyugated people involced.......Why the controversy is kept under the Decolonization Committee or C 24.....??

    Can the chair of the Committee be objective when he has stated that hi support the Argentine claim....???

    If the controversy is about territorial and integrity matters, why the Argentine claim ít´s not sent to the ICJ at Hague where that kind of matter are judged.....??

    It´seems like the Argentine claim hs been and it is used for another reasons out the law and applying to a wrong sense of brotherhood between the LA countries led by the countreis with left wing Gvts. that is a lie as Chile has suffered from its neighbors from long time ago ......

    Finally, this is just a borders matter between two countries....Argentina and Falklands Islands...nothing more......

    At last you admit that what the rest of the world considers to be a “country club” is different in Argentina because it has to have something extra. In Argentina, what we would call “residential complex with sports facilities” is called a “country club” - weird. Still, as everybody knows Argentina is a world leader in b------t!

    So you say you live in a “gated community with a recreational area”. And you call it a Country Club.

    We call what you live in a “mental institution”. Granted, it has gates, and an exercise yard, but that's not quite the same thing, is it?
