On March 4, "Global Network" reported that recently US Congressman Salazar publicly criticized the normal cooperation between China and Argentina, claiming that China will set up a fighter factory in Argentina and will also set up a sounding space station to "enhance its presence." Salazar clamored that China's development in South America was not for trade, but "for war."

Salazar's shameless remarks directly angered the Argentine side. Aguero, the Afghan ambassador to the United States, wrote to Salazar, pointing out that Salazar was talking nonsense. Aguero's letter mentioned that there were no "foreign military bases" in Argentina, and the only problem was Britain's "illegal occupation of the Falklands." Aguero dismissed the notion that China is building fighter factories in Afghanistan, stressing that Argentina's inability to obtain fighters was caused by Western sanctions after the Falklands War in the 80s. Aguero also pointed out that China-Arab space cooperation is similar to European cooperation on the ground, the same station, only 300 miles away. Relevant reports show that Salazar has publicly accused China and Argentina of space cooperation, but in Aguero's view, this is an "offense" to the Afghan side.

Argentina recently publicly asked the British side to restart sovereignty negotiations on the Falklands issue, and the British claimed to be "disappointed". But Argentina, which has been holding back for decades on the Falklands issue, really doesn't want to endure it anymore. In particular, the United Kingdom, together with the United States, has continuously used the Falklands issue to impose sanctions on Argentina, which makes Argentina even more unbearable.

Just last year, Argentina was still considering the purchase of the "Thunder Dragon" fighter jointly developed by China and Pakistan, for this reason, the Afghan military senior level also specially led a delegation to Pakistan to visit the "Thunder Dragon 3" fighter. However, the idea of the Arab side was soon disrupted by the joint situation of Britain and the United States. Under the joint pressure of Britain and the United States, the Afghan side suddenly changed its attitude and froze the possibility of purchasing "Thunder Dragon", and the order was disrupted. It is reported that the Afghan side may continue to seek the introduction of American-made F-16 fighters. Of course, this is obviously a pie drawn by the United States for Argentina, and even if Argentina can get F-16 fighters, it will definitely only be more constrained and cannot be used to recover the Falklands.

It is worth noting that on the Falklands issue, China and the wider international community support Afghanistan's position, and the United Nations and other international organizations have been urging the resolution of colonial legacies. However, the United States, Britain and other Western powers turned a blind eye to this and pretended to be deaf and dumb, which is obviously not only disrespectful to Afghanistan's demands, but also ignoring international calls.
(Argentine President Fernandez has dismissed the possibility of purchasing the "Thunder Dragon" at present)
When Argentine President Fernandez talked about the procurement of the "Thunder Dragon", he implied that Argentina suffered from "inequality" on the American continent, and everyone must know what "inequality" there is in the American continent. Argentina's plan to purchase the "Thunder Dragon" between China and Pakistan has been disrupted, and now the United States is not satisfied and wants to curse the street. It is no wonder that the Afghan ambassador to the United States wrote a letter to angrily criticize it. Whoever has changed can not endure the repeated hegemonic exploitation of the United States.
