Worth noting that the Chinese ambassador also called it the Malvinas throughout, not the Falklands.
Not a huge fan of this. I know why they’re doing this but it sucks for the people living on the Falkland Islands being used as pawns in a larger geopolitical game.
Britain should give Argentina the Falklands because they won the world cup. It’s your own game, England! it’s more than fair!
Inside you are two wolves
One of them wants to post, "Sink England into the sea lmao unlimited genocide on the first world"
The other is deeply concerned about defending British territorial claims in South America
You are a Hexbear poster
On the one hand, anything that makes mad is cool and funny, but why pick literally the only place they settled fair and square?
how is it fair and square they literally fought a war over it, to prevent argentina from getting to use it
That it’s literally a foreign government’s outpost on an island directly off the coast of Argentina, which Argentina could benefit from (and Argentina isn’t as rich as Britain).
What claim do a bunch of British people who get their British people food shipped half way around the world have? They don’t even import food from Argentina as far as I know.
Apparently they even has a ship they sail around there. Woo hoo massively polluting military industrial complex!
Don’t Argentina’s claims basically come from it being part of the same Spanish colony? Cause idk that doesn’t sound very de-colonialist to me.
but like, on serious note, this is probably just China doing the whole ‘East Turkestan is a real country’ shit but in reverse.
You could also use that argument to claim any other island belongs to the nearby landmass. By that logic Florida has a claim on Cuba
Cuba’s not right there. It’s way over somewhere. Falklands are right there.
UK is waaaaay the fuck over there. Not even here. They’re too far there to be here and thus lay no claim.
