  4. I know the narrative, but still don't grok the deep Argentinian obsession with the Falklands/Malvinas: they have never been governed by Argentina, there was no indigenous population at the time of European contact, and in the last referendum, 99.8% of the population voted that they didn't want to join Argentina.

    Let's be honest: given its colonial history, it's usually safe to assume that the UK is in the wrong in any geopolitical disagreement outside of Europe. This seems to be the one exception: it isn't colonialism, because there was no one there to be colonised when the European settlers arrived. 🤷

  6. "...Die Falklandinseln würden durch »kluge Diplomatie gewonnen, nicht durch billige patriotische Gesten. ..."

    Wenn die Bewohner der Falklands halt nicht zu Argentinien gehören wollen, was soll dann da kluge Diplomatie daran ändern?

    Volksabstimmung und dann Ergebnis akzeptieren! Punkt! Alles Andere wäre Kolonisation, und das sollte wirklich der Geschichte angehören.

    I'm in general agreement with Jenkins.

    Surely it can't be beyond the diplomatic ingenuity of the UK and Argentina to resolve this dispute with some form of joint sovereignty.

  12. "Who cares what the people who live there think, capital cities thousands of miles away should decide their fate"

    Just colonialism in another form, when you don't ask the people who live there what they want to do. For some reason it's always a sidenote when people redraw lines on maps.

  17. O #ARGENG de hoje reaviva o debate sobre as #Falklands (ilhas britânicas relativamente próximas da costa argentina) e o eterno malentendido sobre o que é o colonialismo nas Américas.

    A lógica de quem defende que as ilhas são #Malvinas é que o UK é um poder colonial e o estado argentino não, é antes um ex-colonizado. Só que não havia estado argentino para colonizar, a Argentina (como a maior parte dos estados americanos) é uma invenção colonial e extremou o colonialismo já pós independência.
