    Who cares what he says and thinks, he is half right, the islands are non negotiable, but they belong to the islanders and no one else,

    President Milei is quite right, there is nothing to negotiate. Which is why we haven't bothered for the last 43 years.

    Happy New Year

    The Falkland Islanders have made their wishes known (unanimously) and legally.

    I think he was actually saying that the only reason for the “Malvinas claims” is to distract the population of Argentina from all the other problems they are facing. I believe that he was telling the Telegraph that the rest of the world can just ignore the prattling on as it is purely for home consumption.

    Milei knows the truth but has to occasionally come up with the Malvinas garbage to placate the lunatic indoctrinated fanatics, or he gets accused of being a traitor,

    He is spot on. Argentinas claims are non-negotiable. We wont negotiate them. The only way to Argentine sovereignty is the consent of the islanders, which they will not give.

    Perfect. Q.E.D.
