Disclaimer & comment rulesRegarding Falklands oil exploration, Argentine Foreign Minister Jorge Taiana stated in February 2010, that his Government would take 'all measures necessary to preserve our rights' and also reiterated that Argentina had a permanent claim' on the islands, saying 'Buenos Aires would complain to the UN over the oil project and might take the case to the International Courts of Justice in the Hague.'

Dear Bob,
Jan 22nd, 2018 - 01:21 pm - Link - Report abuse +4my opinion is that there is a large number of Argentines who don’t want to know anything about the Malvinas issue, keeping calm, live in peace, think how much fortune you have had adopting self determination, here are many peoples who would like to choose to being under the British rules too!!

England will return the Malvinas within 25 years.

Jan 31st, 2018 - 09:15 am - Link - Report abuse 0The verb to return implies that something was given in loan or only given, in this case England has nothing to return because the islands are legitimately owned by the United Kingdom, it is time that you end with these insane comments and let people live in holy peace! You have to read other books beyond those of Argentina, you have to inform yourself, study, and above all not be ridiculous.
