In 1825 the Malvinas Islands belonged to the United Provinces of the Rio de la Plata, what is now Argentina, with a government and population in the Malvinas Islands legally established. In 1825, the UK signed with the Government of the United Provinces of the Rio de la Plata the which today is Argentina, a treaty of Friendship and Trade, without any type of qualms about the Malvinas Islands that THE ENGLISH INVADED AND ROBBED IN 1833

London has known since 1910 that it has no right to the Falklands In 1910 and 1936, Foreign Office officials and lawyers issued opinions that questioned British claims to retain the Falklands. “It is not easy to explain our position without appearing to be international bandits,” said a 1936 memo. Britain never agreed to arbitration because its position had “certain weaknesses,” and the islands had to be preserved “for strategic reasons.” Shortly after the Falklands crisis arose, the British government removed all documents on the Falklands that were in the Public Record Office: an archive of official papers accessible to the public. The Sunday Times revealed on June 20, 1982 that, among the documents transferred to the Foreign Office, there are several in which officials from the British Foreign Ministry itself questioned the right of the United Kingdom over the Argentine Malvinas Islands.

The Special Committee on Decolonization (UN) declared that the Malvinas were subject to the decolonization process, urged in 1960 by the United Nations General Assembly. In 1965, Great Britain and Argentina began to negotiate the future of the islands within the framework of the UN: London recognized, in fact, the colonial status of the Falklands, its only argument for delaying the reintegration of the archipelago to Argentina was the will of the islanders. The Crown no longer claimed title to the islands. The right to self-determination, raised by Great Britain in favor of the islanders, only arises in the case of a population that demands its independence: something that the 1,800 inhabitants of the British colony never did or could do. That was the last argument of the British government, which since 1910 had been retreating from its positions - inaugurated in 1833 by Lord Palmerston with a firm defense of the right of sovereignty of the Crown - until reaching the point where the conflict was reached when, The April 2, Argentina occupied the islands.

Bernhardt Memorandum (1910). At the request of the head of the American Department of the Foreign Office, Sidney Spicer, researcher Gastón De Bernhardt prepared a memorandum that condensed the history of the islands and the legal arguments of Great Britain and Argentina. That memorandum served as an internal guide for the Foreign Office until 1938. Bernhardt stated the following: “The question of sovereignty was specifically excluded from the agreement made with Spain in 1771.” This agreement contained a secret clause by which Great Britain was obliged to abandon the islands, which it did in 1774. “For 55 years, until 1829 (that is, until 13 years after Argentina's independence was proclaimed), Great Britain “He showed no interest in the islands.” “Great Britain began to claim the eastern island only in 1829” (it had never claimed it during Spanish rule; this is the island where Puerto Argentino is located). Spicer Letter (1910). In a letter to De Bernhardt himself, Spicer confessed: “It is difficult to avoid the conclusion that the attitude of the Argentine government is not entirely unjustified, and that our action has been somewhat despotic.” Fitzmaurice Memorandum (1936). In February 1936, legal adviser George Fitzmaurice advised against Britain submitting the Falklands question to international arbitration: “Our position has certain weaknesses. But we have occupied the islands for more than a century (albeit illegally, as Argentina says) and for strategic reasons we cannot give them up. So the best thing to do is to take a hard line.”

The English Cowards invaded the Argentine Republic in 1806, and 1808, they were defeated by the military forces and the people who threw boiling water at them. The English ran away from Buenos Aires, they cowardly invaded us in 1833, taking our Malvinas Islands with a government legal, recognized by the British Empire in the Treaty of Friendship and Commerce of 1825 with the then United Provinces of the Rio de la Plata, and in 1845 an Anglo-French fleet invaded us again, and were repelled in the Vuelta de Obligado, Argentina never left to Claim for the Illegal Occupation of the British Empire of the Argentine Malvinas Islands, since the founding of the UN the Issue of the Malvinas Islands has been known as a Disputed Territory, the British Empire always delayed the negotiations and the Argentine Republic contributed to the construction of an Airport in Puerto Argentino Puerto Stanley medical services in Argentina and fresh food for the Kelpers, on two occasions the UK promised to return the islands and never followed through, forcing the War with the Argentine Republic, with the support of the US, which cowardly acted as a mediator. turns into supplier of AM9L Sidewinder missiles to the UK that made the difference, without US Help the UK lost the Falkland Islands war

The British Empire was the FIRST DRUG TRAFFICKING STATE IN THE WORLD During the Opium War, it was the conflict between China and Great Britain between the years 1839 and 1842. The trigger was the introduction into China of opium grown in India and marketed by the British East India Company, administrator of India. UK, had the support of the US who were mediators, who gave them the AM9L Sidewinder missiles that made the difference, allowing them to use Ascencion Island, despite all the help from the US, the Argentine pilots sank 7 English ships, the destroyers CL 42 HMS Sheffield and HMS Coventry, the frigates CL 21 HMS Ardent and HMS Antelope, and more than 24 ships of the Pirate fleet were seriously damaged, including the aircraft carrier HMS Invincible, which the UK never recognized due to the shame they felt when they were ridiculed in NATO.

I watched this years ago. They didn't bail out when the train started slowing down? Amateurs!

Have a question do the CSX trains go right by the platform or just on a track near it

Is FIGAS a Public Transport operator? Do they hold an Air Operator’s Certificate, or do they fall under a special category?

Kelpers had the first landing strip thanks to the Argentine Air Force, that built it in 1972 with aluminum sheets taken along with heavy machinery from Buenos Aires. This brought undoubted benefits to the well-being of the islanders for many years. Then the British, on May the 1st 1982, bombed that runway... .

FALKLANDS ARE BRITISH💪💪💪💪

Quelle beauté cette locomotive une star

Ok...? I guess that's one way to do it

Fantastic and real, I've lived on the Falkland Islands. A place of beauty ❤

I was born in Vancouver and have lived nearby for 61 years now. I worked for the power company for 38 years and retired. My family has been there since 1888. It’s sad to see them hassle my fellow citizens.
