Forty-one years after the Falklands war, the UK has suffered a diplomatic defeat over the archipelago as the EU appeared to endorse the Argentine name for the disputed territory, Islas Malvinas.
Brussels supported an Argentina-backed declaration referring to Islas Malvinas at a summit of EU leaders with Latin America and the Caribbean (Celac) leaders on Tuesday, which Buenos Aires called a “diplomatic triumph”.
well, to be fair, if England wanted any influence in rhe EU…well…you know.
Anyway, we’re living the 80s again so its Falkland wars 2, Malvina Boogaloo
I think this was probably used as a reminder of “you’re no longer a member, Brexit means Brexit”, but I think it’s in the interest of EU members to assert once again the importance of international law and basic common sense. Argentianian claims are totally baseless of either and are pure expansionism.
PS: And let’s not forget that Falklanders were not allowed to vote on the Brexit referendum.

Sounds like a good reason to want to leave the UK to be honest.
