@BaucheJoseph @Robkearney1981 You're idealistic and that would be terrible for the world, which still votes on majority tribal and racial lines. Countries would simply leave the UN.

Why does France support Britain's claim to the Malvinas (Falklands)?
X Maps@mapas_x
🇺🇳 Posición respecto a Malvinas, de cada país:
English
@BaucheJoseph @Robkearney1981 How so? Do you want more UN resolutions to pass, and to stop being vetoed by the Security Council?
English
@chimpriot @Robkearney1981 The veto is what enables blockades, terrorism and genocide. And why not mention China and Russia, as well as Britain and France?
English
@Radish656 @DailyMail True. Patriotism is good, but the Daily Mail undermine it with bullshit and lies.
English
@chimpriot @DailyMail There F16 are totally outclassed by our Typhoons! It loves a bit of rage baiting the patriot flagshaggers lol

Falklands left without key air defences as Argentina splashes millions on fighter jets and US threatens to withdraw support for UK control of islands trib.al/mI3xWHl
English
@BaucheJoseph @Robkearney1981 The veto is what blocks the rest of the UN ganging up on Britain, France, etc. Both countries must keep the permanent seats, although it looks like France will give theirs to the EU.
English
@chimpriot @Robkearney1981 And what good will that do when the U.S., Russia and China have vetoes as well?
English
@xx63405257 @BenGrahamUK You haven't got a clue. You can't even defeat Iran.
English
The UK can no longer defend them - the Royal Navy couldn’t even get a single working destroyer to Crete without breakdown. The Army and Navy that won in the Falklands no longer exist - and I seriously doubt the current lot has the backbone of thatcher. You can either live in the past or take your country back before it’s loo late
English
If Britain were to lose the Falklands, it wouldn’t just be a geopolitical setback, it would be a defining moment in modern British history, and not for the right reasons.
The Falkland Islands are a British Overseas Territory, and their sovereignty should be non negotiable.
Allowing them to fall without resistance would result in loss of credibility on the world stage.

Britain could lose the Falklands because of weak leadership. It's not the 80s anymore, there's no Thatcher in charge and the UK is a depressing shell of its former self. If Argentina simply walks in and takes over, possibly soon with Trump's approval, what exactly will Keir Starmer do? Send an angry worded letter? Would he even care at all?
English
@DrMaximus_NYC @1410_berlin You complain about leftists and then start using their language.
English
This is how the leftists rewrite history in front of our eyes.
The Falklands were invaded by people 8000 miles away in 1833 and now somehow they’re the owners
Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦@AdamKinzinger
FYI the Argentinians invaded the Falklands. They were the occupiers
English
@UnityNewsNet Maybe Milei wants to cull Argentines to make way for Jews. That's what will happen if he attacks Britain.
English
@WotBuwcheeks They're behind the attack on British sovereignty over the Falklands. Milei is their attack dog.
English
How did my tweets about the UK defending the Falklands upset so many americans?

Falkland Islands exposed as Argentina splashes millions on air defences

English
@naptownlawyer @DailyMail Trump is using his attack dog, Milei, to put pressure on the UK - because of Iran. It won't work.
English
@DailyMail This is why Trump urged Britain to spend more on its own defense.
English
@DownHomeJohn @UnderscoreYara Nah. Europe will normalise relations with Russia and China. The US lose their influence around the globe.
English
@chimpriot @UnderscoreYara Economically you’re gonna pay a lot more in taxes when the US pulls out of NATO. You’re gonna have to donate a decade of national wealth collectively to make up the loss.
English
Because we hate Americans and Argentinians more than the British 🥸☝️
Robert Kearney@Robkearney1981
Why does France support Britain's claim to the Malvinas (Falklands)?
English
@ThomasNuckles @afneil Nope. The whole story came from the US administration "rethinking" their stance on Falklands, and Trump emboldening Milei.
The UK, Europe and USA will diverge heavily, and Americans will regret that choice in time.
English
@chimpriot @afneil This is coming from the UN, not the US.
English
Argentina doesn’t have Navy capable of mounting an invasion of the Falklands and any airborne invasion would be taken out by UK’s formidable Sky Sabre missile defences. Argentina spends under 1% of GDP on military and has no plans to spend the billions required to modernise its forces, which in many areas are even weaker than they were in 1982.
Steven Ziegenbusch@StevenZieg3001
@afneil All of that may be true, however, with very little Navy forces that are ready to go it would be very difficult to rearm and replenish your forces from 8000 miles away while Argentina is 300 miles away from the Islands. In 1982 Britain could project power, not any more.
English
@ThomasNuckles @afneil It won't lose them. The US is trying to apply pressure to the UK, via Argentina, over Iran. Bitch move.
English
@afneil Britain won't lose the Falklands due to its weak military, it will lose them due to its weak leaders.
English
If anyone wonders why Britian belongs in Europe.
Look at the European outpouring to support us over the falklands.
Allies stand with allies.
America take note.
English
@RodDMartin Why would sending a destroyer be useful when the capability of the destroyer is already built on the island? Are Iran going to invade with their navy?
English
In 1982, Margaret Thatcher heroically sent 127 ships to take back the Falklands.
In 2026, Keir Starmer, whose navy has more admirals than warships, was unable to successfully send even one destroyer to defend the RAF base on Cyprus.
Incredible.
English
@DavidVance You're no patriot when you're trying to undermine British control of Falklands. Probably Israel and MAGA first.
English
How can the UK defend the Falklands when it cannot defend the UK…..?
English
@BaucheJoseph @Robkearney1981 They will receive diplomatic support from Britain at the UN.
English
@Robkearney1981 Because France want's British help in French Guiana and their Caribbean islands.
English
@UnderscoreYara I'm coming around to the French. They were proved right on nuclear energy and Gaullism. French food is almost as good as British cuisine also.
