Tensions between Argentina and the UK have grown recently due to expanded resource extraction activities in the territory

@ElAvatarTang @friesneverdies @MattC1456 @JackDunc1 @PolitlcsGlobal @MercoPressNews What is this, squatters rights?
English
@friesneverdies @yoneabuser @MattC1456 @JackDunc1 @PolitlcsGlobal @MercoPressNews They left in 1774 and said and did nothing about the Spanish and Argentine possession for over 50 years. That's more than enough to constitute acquiescence and consider any British claim prescribed.
It doesn't matter if they came back later. Their claim was already gone.

@cinemetary Episode makes you think Greg might be a good dude and by season 2 he might be the worst person and even sued greenpeace

@superkanga @TrueSlazac Right, you don’t actively care abt self determination

@yoneabuser @TrueSlazac They can return to UK and vote there for all I care.

The greatest thing about the Falklands discourse is that it implies the ONE LatAm country where 90% of the people are white colonial settlers
Dime 🇦🇷@Dimememem
i love the argument of "99% of the implanted british population of the islands chose to remain british"
English
@rchieyes You cannot support Palestine (Defending against Etnosupremacists) while supporting Ukraine (Nazis/CIA country) & United Kingdom (Most genocidal country in History) at the same time, you are a moral fraud.
English
There already is a peaceful solution: the Falklands remain a British overseas territory, given the majority of people living there are British. Argentina has never had any solid control over the islands.

Follow for the very latest political news! Chile also called for Argentina and the United Kingdom to resume negotiations to reach "as soon as possible" a peaceful and definitive solution to the dispute It comes after Argentina rejected the “Final Investment Decision” by British and Israeli firms Rockhopper Exploration and Navitas Petroleum to develop the Sea Lion field near the Falkland Islands en.mercopress.com/2026/04/07/chi…

@yoneabuser @MattC1456 @JackDunc1 @PolitlcsGlobal @MercoPressNews One shouldn't waste gunpowder in chimangs.

@superkanga @TrueSlazac Oh yeah, what do the people on the islands think of that?
English
@yoneabuser @TrueSlazac America for the Americans. Charles the 3rd has no business ocuppying Malvinas
English
@ElAvatarTang @MattC1456 @JackDunc1 @PolitlcsGlobal @MercoPressNews Spain didn’t occupy the whole archipelago either, that’s why the British went to the left island. Because the Spanish were on the right. Even if everything you say is true, which it isn’t, at maximum Argentina controlled the islands for 17 years. Britain has held it ~200 years
English
@yoneabuser @MattC1456 @JackDunc1 @PolitlcsGlobal @MercoPressNews -upon discovery, Spain immediately contested their actions,
-they abandoned the islands some years later, and
- they only occupied only Trinidad island, not the whole archipelago.
English
@ElAvatarTang @MattC1456 @JackDunc1 @PolitlcsGlobal @MercoPressNews No it wasn’t secret lol what read about the 1770 Falklands crisis. They both agreed (Spain and uk) to keep their settlements. How is it secret if Spain knows about it?
English
@yoneabuser @MattC1456 @JackDunc1 @PolitlcsGlobal @MercoPressNews It was invalid because:
-their settlement was secret, since they knew Spain was very protective of those islands,
-it was made in violation of treaties with Spain,
-they weren't even the first to settle them,
-they settled in Spanish territory,
...
English
@superkanga @TrueSlazac So colonization is bad because it’s far away? I don’t think that’s why it’s bad. The native Americans were right next to the American settlers, doesn’t make it any better when the settlers invaded
English
@jbrrrrrrr_ @Nosoyna__ @TrueSlazac Where? Looked for them and couldn’t find any images of the falklands. They can’t violate treaties by occupying the falklands if Spain no longer owned them
English
@yoneabuser @Nosoyna__ @TrueSlazac There literally is though, the islands show up in the "Islario General de todas las islas del mundo" from 1541. Regardless all of this is completely irrelevant because sovereignity over land isnt given for "discovering it" and britain violated multiple treaties every time they
English
@jbrrrrrrr_ @Nosoyna__ @TrueSlazac so what defines sovereignty? The people who live there? Because the people who live there want it to be British.

@jordjonespress @leap_dog las islas fueron descubiertas por los franceses, reclamadas y pobladas por los españoles, heredadas por los argentinos tras la independencia y usurpadas por los británicos, esa es la cronología, no tiene nada que ver lo que me estas diciendo.
Español
@ElAvatarTang @MattC1456 @JackDunc1 @PolitlcsGlobal @MercoPressNews So it’s invalid because the Spanish disputed it? The French claim is irrelevant, they rescinded it.
English
@yoneabuser @MattC1456 @JackDunc1 @PolitlcsGlobal @MercoPressNews The point is that the British attempted claim was invalid for the reasons listed above.
English
@jbrrrrrrr_ @Nosoyna__ @TrueSlazac If only there was proof of that but there simply is not which is why the consensus is that John Davis discovered them and John strong landed first. That’s why they’re called the falklands and not the Sansón islands, which is what de Camargo called the islands he saw.
English
@yoneabuser @Nosoyna__ @TrueSlazac There are territories resembling Malvinas in the maps from the expeditions of Américo Vespucio and Magallanes. Alonso de Camargo was in Malvinas like 150 years before John Strong lol
English
@ElAvatarTang @MattC1456 @JackDunc1 @PolitlcsGlobal @MercoPressNews How can you say they made a claim to the island and then finish your tweet by saying they had no claims to the island
English
@MattC1456 @JackDunc1 @PolitlcsGlobal @MercoPressNews Britain made a secret settlement, after the French, in Spanish territory who protested upon discovery, and was abandoned. They had no claim to the islands.
English
@jbrrrrrrr_ @Nosoyna__ @TrueSlazac What’s the name of the Spanish explorer who first discovered them? Who was the first to land? It wasn’t John Strong ?
English
@yoneabuser @Nosoyna__ @TrueSlazac The spanish discovered them. And yes, the first ones to settle on the islands were french

@Argentinohlp @okayokay73668 @TrueSlazac Too bad they weren’t first! The civilians were encouraged to stay, only the military was “expelled” (because they invaded illegally)
