The Falkland Islanders are British transplants and don't have a right to choose anything nor self-determination because they live on stolen property. Most countries around the world side/recognize it as part of Argentina because they know those Islands were stolen from them.

Canada has hundreds, if not thousands of unpopulated islands, as do Scandinavian countries. So foreign nationals can occupy them and claim them for their nations? The colonial gymnastics is utter bullsh*t.

I am 100% sure that this is a trump who is involved in this new problem. Trump is a narcissistic psychopath who can’t stand that UK didn’t support his not legal invasion of Iran and this was him who call Argentina and told them to go after Falklands islands . And now he is pretending that he will have to think on which side he will be. Trump gave Argentina billions of dollars and now he is expecting, telling them to go after the islands . He wants to start war with British people, Canadians, with everyone who is opposing him. Trump never was a smart person but now with his dementia progressing very fast he is becoming a very dangerous individual. Combined narcissistic, sociopathic personality with dementia is very dangerous combination. He should be removed from his position as soon as possible

Always tricky to interpret such events. The Falkland can choose like the Donbas did back in 2014 not to be part of Kiev after the Maidan Coup and again in 2022. BUT this is more complicated than that. Look at Yugoslavia, Serbia or even Barcelona all depends on national interests of the big powers.

All nations recognised by the United Nations are responsible for upholding the UN Charter which has Articles on Self Determination and Sovereignty at it&#39;s core. <br>USA was a founder member of UN so knows that attacking sovereign nations is illegal. In 1992, and now.<br>Falkland Islanders chose democratically to be British so there&#39;s nothing that either president can do except respect that.<br>Standard desperate ploy from unpopular politicians coming up to election to distract voters from their incompetence with a supposed common enemy.<br>Spain were worthy Football World Cup Champions.

Milei is in trouble, and he is dangling the smell of oil in front of his buddy Trump. But if Trump complains about the lack of UK support for his mad-cap wars, then he should consider how he will cope if US access to UK bases is withdrawn, and their use as staging posts cease.

Yea, but conditions today are very different. The UK is no longer the military powerhouse that it was back in the &#39;80s and the Argentinians have improved and somewhat modernised their military as well as the relationship between their president and Donald Trump. No one can predict how Trump might respond if the Argentina president asks for US military aid to invade the Falklands. For their own sake, UK should start preparing just in case the two clowns actually launches an invasion.
