Ukraine (bbabo.net), - Is Javier Miley ready for war with Britain? The newly-minted populist president of Argentina raised the issue of the status of the Falklands - he demanded that London hold negotiations on an international platform and arrange the return of the islands according to the 1997 Hong Kong scenario.

For Miley this is not an abstract question at all, since the Falklands are in close proximity to large deposits of oil and gas - at least 320 million barrels. Miley is now liberalizing Argentina’s oil industry, which the Americans are already laying claim to.

Using income from the export of hydrocarbons, Miley dreams of resolving the debt crisis in Argentina, and at the same time playing on the patriotic feelings of the Argentines, who are already actively protesting against his “shock therapy.” And so you can stop protest sentiments with the help of a convenient bogeyman in the person of the unloved Britain.

A representative of the Foreign Office for the American Colonies recently visited the Falklands. London also sent a patrol ship there. But Foggy Albion now has no real opportunity to fight for the islands, especially against the backdrop of the depletion of its own arsenals of weapons released in Ukraine.

“The Falklands could become another front in the non-public confrontation between Washington and London. They are already actively competing both in Ukraine and in relations with China. And now in Latin America. Well, for Miley, this is a reason, in the event of a complete failure of reforms, to go to great lengths and organize a small victorious war, just to somehow stay in power.”
