Alicia Castro tried to pull Argentina's immediate neighbours into the dispute, claiming UK diplomatic and business relations could be damaged if the islands were not handed over to Buenos Aires.

She said Las Malvinas – Argentina's name for the Falklands – would be better off if they cut their ties with the UK.

Describing the islands as a "colonial enclave", she said her government would send teachers to the islands to teach Spanish, while it also wanted to re-establish direct flights between the Falklands and the mainland.

She told Dermot Murnaghan on Sky News that Argentina "did not want to change the way of life" on the Falklands, insisting the islands had to be "given back to Latin America as a whole".

And she claimed an advert depicting an Argentina athlete using a war memorial on the islands to do step-ups was not designed to upset relations between the UK and the South American country.

Ms Castro said: "Is it rational that a small community, in the name of very particular wishes and interests, are against any dialogue?

"Does it make sense that because they are not regarding the interests of the 60 million British people, they are not regarding the interests of the 30 million people in Argentina and they are not regarding their best interests, which would no doubt be better preserved if they were linked to the continent?"

In a sarcastic sideswipe at the British Government, the ambassador added: "We are very happy having this colonial enclave in the south of our country.

"It's not an Argentinian cause, it's a regional cause. The United Kingdom, by not wanting to have a proper dialogue with Argentina, it's (turning) its back on Latin America as a whole.

"If it's true that Britain wants to improve its relations with Latin America, they (the British Government) have to settle this dispute."

Absolute and complete bollocks! Does France belong to Britain, or, vice versa, being only 21 miles apart, Britain belongs to France?
Fucking Spic twats. The Falklands are British. The population is [Falkland] British, and don't need fucking Dagos strutting about looking to fuck stray sheep [or seals], if you are that way inclined. Christina, I would like to give you one, doggy stile!

Yawn

Its time to nuke Buenes aires

I think the USA is going to be neutral on this.

Europe's last colonial war.

Well lets say now the Falklands: next french Guiana and California. Viva Aztlan and all that.

Personally I dont care if the US is neutral but its far from the last colonial war - its more about South America asserting its bullshit and mainland US is a target as much as the Falklands is

I almost wish that the Argentines would start something just so the Brits would smack the insolent fuckers down.

Better yet, if Cristina Kirchner blows the entire House of Commons on BBC, she can have "discussions" on the Falklands.

She's right of course. This hangover from colonialism has to stop. And to that end, Britain has announced that we will evacuate the Falklands....















....On the same day that the Americas are evacuated and handed over to the indigenous Indians.

Or when the Argentinian bastards of former Spanish gold robbing murdering Beaners hand that country back to the Injuns of Aztek type origin who were the real peoples of S. America 20 generations ago.

Yes, and Israel will give land to Arabs just because they claim it was taken from them. You win it, you own it.

Some things taken can never be given back to
Maybe someone know more than they lead on about no?

Earth in a constant state of war either extincts it or develops better technology. .... (better technology) which also leads to more war..

....more technology.... usually governed by the inability to find WORKABLE SOLUTIONS to the actual cause is not necessarily the way to go.

The Falklanders are free to join Argentina if they want, but they don't want. There are many Brits in Argentina including a colony of Taffs who continue to speak Welsh. They should have more of those strange bastards, if they more immigrants. Don't forger the descendants of the Third Reich also infest Argentina.

why is Brits ruling happy Brits colonialism
but Spics ruling unhappy Brits not colonialism

4 hubert
Among Arab Argentines, 784,000 are Muslims.of 38M

Obama's Grandfather was a Maumau. he will probably side with Argentina. he wont bring the US congress with him, neutrality with some dirty tricks in favor of the argentinians.

Of course its all academic.

Argentina's military is completely useless and of no real consequence.

"The ambassador stressed that “we do not want to take away the Britishness of the people in the (Falklands) Malvinas, they are proud to be British and we respect that. But why keep a thousand soldiers, aircraft and boats there? For an invasion that will never happen. It was a cruel, stupid war carried out by our cruel military junta which was killing its own people while killing British soldiers in the Malvinas. Do you think we approve of that?”"

What is this idiot bitches mental malfunction. If a military junta happened once in Argentina who's to say that or something else percolates up on socialistic and nationalistic votes in Argentina? Also, if she doesn't want to come across as a hypocrite she can make all Argentines speak the native indian tribe languages. Things are the way they are just leave it alone.

en.mercopress.com . . .

England keep what is yours. The Falklands are yours. The Spanish colonialists descent Argentinians are hypocrites if this is any soft of political issue in Argentina.

I'm a little off topic with what I am going to say but here goes. As an American I was devastated by 9/11/2001. I was born in New York. There we were all of us Americans clueless as to what attacked us right after the trade towers and Pentagon were attacked. You British came to help us right away. I will never, ever, ever, ever forget that. You risked your own safety to help us Americans and then terrorists attacked you on 7/7.

Over the years since 9/11 when I do think of the British I wonder how I could thank such a wonderful population of people that you are. Not in a public way of course, I'm just a computer programmer. Any ideas?

My grandfather was a P47 bomber pilot during WWII. His missions were to destroy bridges used by the Nazi's. But he died before 9/11.

So the argies want back islands that have been in Great Britain for over 100 years longer than Argentina has been a country?

Funny how all of the enemies of the western world come out when the USA has communist in charge.
