In a column published this week in Buenos Aires daily Clarín, Gustavo Melella, Governor of the Argentine Province of Tierra del Fuego which technically includes the South Atlantic Islands over which the South American country claims sovereignty, stressed that the future Libertarian administration of Javier Milei should not enact a U-turn in the state policies on that particular matter.
After British Secretary James Cleverly announced Sunday that he would be traveling to the Falklands to show his support for the Islanders' self-determination, the Argentine government replied that it was an “unnecessary provocation.”
Argentina's Malvinas Council issued a statement condemning the stance of presidential candidate Javier Milei's La Libertad Avanza (LLA) party regarding the “self-determination” of the Falkland Islanders and insisted that “the pretended reference of the islanders as a third party to the dispute is a central component of the British diplomatic strategy.”
Outgoing Chinese ambassador in Argentina, Zou Xiaoli again expressed support for the Argentine government's position regarding its sovereignty claim over the Falkland Islands.
The Argentine Ministry of Foreign Affairs hailed it as a ‘triumph of Argentine diplomacy’.
