    Estimado THINK

    The agreement is just about as sincere as the fist bump in the photograph.

    — It's all show and no substance. —

    Argentina is like an old bitchy woman who keeps asking her next-door neighbor if she's still young looking and beautiful — and of course the answer is OF COURSE YOU ARE!

    But sadly, the truth is like the haggard face of CFK...

    ¡Saludos!!

    Claim?

    Based on what?

    Britain did not expel the Argentine population in 1833. They merely reasserted sovereignty. The only group Britain did expel was a 26-man Argentine garrison that had already made plans to leave the islands.

    Nothing is sincere coming from Piñera..., hermanito...

    But the many agreements are on paper..., properly signed, registered and implemented...

    Besides..., after the meeting with the incumbent Shilean president..., Alberto went to dine with the upcoming...

    Sadly, the Falklands can never be independent as they would be too under threat by Argentina, the status quo is the only means to protect them properly

    Hello, Gullible's back.

    Do you have any idea how Chilean's there are in the Falklands, Gullible?

    Chile's political support for Argentina's spurious claims does not seem to amount to anything very much.

    It is a tragic fact that many South American countries “support the Argentine claim”, even if it it often is just lip service. I wonder what they get in return from Argentina. It must be something. Most countries in the world are silent or “neutral”, or are talking about “dialogue” (even if they must understand that such a dialogue is meaningless given the “Transitional provisions” in the Argentine Constitution). Would be very nice to hear a government (other the UK's) or an international organisation standing up for the “kelpers”.

    What everyone needs to keep in mind — we in Chile are unfortunately neighbors with charming kleptomaniacs with attitude tendencies that defy common sense.

    But it’s not their territory, nor their rightful possession — Argentina’s needs the Malvinas claim to cover up and distract from their government's proclivity to over-borrow, over-spend, and then act like bewildered victims of some complex plot has nothing to do with the economic theory.

    All the austerity in the world is not going to magically transform Argentines into logical decision makers — but they can still claim that the UK is somehow the root of their woes.

    The Argentine public mentality is bewilderingly capable of holding multiple opposing and incompatible ideas in their heads, and simultaneously believing the Falklanders are the scapegoat to their disaster.

    Meanwhile, we agree and sign meaningless accords because we don't need their childish scorn. (Which in the past — they repeatedly caused us suffering.)

    @JudgeJose

    Brunei and Belize have significantly higher populations than the Falklands, with a population of ~3000 you can’t expect them to create a police force let alone a defence army, right now they are self-governing, there’s no need for them to be independent as what good would that do?

    U.K. is part of NATO so automatically defence is 100x better for them

    I love your post. You can choose your friends but you can’t choose your neighbors.

    Chile’s support of Argentina is much the same as my support for Arsenal FC. I am not a member, I’ve never bought any of their official merchandise (only rip-offs from Bangkok) and never paid to go to a match. But I tell everyone I support Arsenal. I love them but I’ve never done anything to further their cause. You could say I only pay them lip service.

    That’s it for MP for me until December now. Too much work to do.

    @zaczac, we will have to agree to disagree, being recognized by the UN as a sovereign country is a big deal and gets the benefits that come with it, also population size is irrelevant, there are a few countries with a population around 10.000 people and are members of the UN, they dont have to have their own military but would get support of the UN if anyone is aggressive towards them,

    Mr. Bloggs

    Thank you for your kind complement.

    Señor Güeón Guillote

    I pity your ignorance and although I’m aware that you’re mentally challenged — sincerely hope you and Teresa* Hill unify in a civil (or religious) ceremony. You two were definitely made for each other.

    Güeón, please continue to post here at MP as I truly enjoy the amusement. I actually admire your country — but just appreciate it’s on the other side of the Andes.

    ¡Saludos!

    (*Terence prefers to be addressed as Teresa)

    Well..., well..., well...

    Last week it was announced that they were “some few” Covid19 cases on some foreign crew members of some few Spanish/Falklands joint venture fishing vessels that were to sail to the Malvinas pirate fishing season..., but that the Spanish/Falklands joint venture fishing companies had everything under “strict protocol” control...

    Today..., it is announced that there is a massive outbreak of Covid19 cases on almost all crews of all Spanish/Falklands joint venture fishing fishing vessels..., including those that had already sailed a couple of weeks ago... that are now being derouted to Brasil and Cabo Verde...
    - I don't Think those Countries will be very happy for their visit...

    So much for the “strict protocol” control them Spanish/Falklands joint venture fishing companies said theiy had...!

    As I said last week..., them Spanish/Falklands joint venture fishing companies better have a very gooooooood liability insurance policy..., and even better lawyers...

    Those Spanish/Falklands joint venture fishing vessels are operating under European Union legislation..., and we surely will look carefully into who's responsible for this irresponsible disregard of human life...

    (Sorry I missed your post)

    Knowing your very SPECIAL Argentine character — I again would greatly recommend the knowledgable and quote filled TERESA HILL as a very suitable partner who has an exciting and dynamic entertaining lifestyle: https://youtu.be/TE9PscWM_QE

    Although she's an unemployed VIRGIN living in his mother's BASEMENT, you can't deny she'd make a marvelous significant partner that could educate you in PERVERSE Latin quotations and he has an incredible appreciation of inflatable sex toys. The virgin bitch has access to an amazing 300+ TV channels and a microwave in her charming mother's kitchen.

    And as you can see from the whore's latest post — if you are into the same dirty toilet paper fetish — you'll experience orgasim!

    I think you Güeón and TERESA would indeed be a marvelous matched pair!

    Save TERESA's sex dolls “LULA” and “LONG DONG SILVER” from their solitary misery!

    Guilote Güeón — Teresa is absolutely your perfect match!

    ¡Saludos de Chile!

    And as you can see from the whore's latest post — if you are into the same dirty toilet paper fetish — you'll experience joy!

    Don't let this chance leave your grasp.
