    At least they can make up their own minds instead of following the Argentine propaganda machine.

    In my experience Central America is not too interested in the interests of Argentina. It is too far away and Argentina showed little interest in the internal conflicts of Guatemala, Nicaragua and El Salvador of the late 20th century.

    About time the C24 visited, according to their remit, though I'm not waiting with baited breath.

    The C24's decision not to fulfil their remits given by the UN but instead act on a sycophantic free for all, means that the UK are not obliged to listen to their dictats, which never result in any GA UN resolutions.

    I'm not so sure. I believe Argentina was involved in the support and training of Central American murder squads, since they had some experience in the area.

    Yes, Reagan supported Galteiri's regime because they were training anti communists in Central America.
