Argentina calls for renewed negotiations over Falkland Islands

Pablo Quirno said Argentina wants renewed bilateral negotiations as a reported U.S. memo raised questions about diplomatic support for the British claim.

  • Argentina formally called for bilateral negotiations with the United Kingdom over the Falkland Islands after reports emerged of a potential American policy shift toward the South Atlantic territory.
  • A leaked Pentagon memo suggests President Donald Trump's administration may reassess support for "imperial possessions" to punish Nato allies for refusing to join US-Israeli strikes against Iran.
  • Downing Street insisted the Falkland Islands' sovereignty is "not in question," while the local government expressed "complete confidence in the commitment made by the UK Government."
  • Pablo Quirno, Argentina's foreign minister, posted on X that the Argentine Republic "once again expresses its willingness to resume bilateral negotiations" with the United Kingdom to resolve the sovereignty dispute.
  • These tensions coincide with strains in the US-UK relationship as the King and Queen prepare for a state visit on Monday, with disagreements persisting over the use of British military bases.
