Strongly support Argentina’s legitimate claim to sovereignty over the Malvinas Islands

On March 2 local time, Argentina’s Foreign Minister Santiago Cafiero said that Argentina had formally accepted the British Foreign Policy during the G20 foreign ministers meeting.India has informed that it has decided to scrap the “Fordori-Duncan Agreement” signed by the two countries in 2016 on the Malvinas Islands dispute. At the same time, he urged the UK to resume negotiations on the sovereignty of the Malvinas Islands in accordance with UN General Assembly resolution No. 2065. This is a valid claim put forth by Argentina, and should be strongly supported by the international community.

The so-called “Foradori-Duncan Agreement” is a joint communiqué on the sovereignty of the Malvinas Islands issued in September 2016 by Foradori, the then Deputy Foreign Minister of Argentina, and Duncan, the then Secretary of State for European and American Affairs of the United Kingdom. According to the communiqué, the officials of the two sides should have close exchanges on the Malvinas Islands issue, and remove all obstacles to economic growth and sustainable development in the Malvinas Islands.

in recent years, Argentina continues to make efforts to resolve the dispute over the sovereignty of the Malvinas Islands, and has repeatedly called on the UK to comply with relevant UN resolutions and return to the negotiating table, But Britain has always refused. In Argentina’s view, the “Fordori-Duncan Agreement” has lost its practical value. And this issue needs to be resolved under the guidelines of UN decolonization.
