The Argentine president plans to recapture the Falklands: no need to fight, just a small bribe to the United States

There are many "mad" politicians in history, they may be deviant and amazing, but their IQ must be online, otherwise it is impossible to manipulate public opinion and laugh at the political arena. According to a report by Phoenix Network Information on April 9, Argentine President Milley recently said that his government will be the first Argentine government to "take seriously" the sovereignty of the Falklands, and in the past few decades, politicians have been preaching to defend the sovereignty of the Falklands, but "nothing has come to fruition", and his government will develop a "clear road map" to retake the Falklands. #MCN首发激励计划#

The Falklands are located in the South Atlantic Ocean, close to South America, across the sea from Argentina, about 500 to 600 kilometers from the mainland of Afghanistan and about 13,000 kilometers from the United Kingdom. In order to fight for the sovereignty of the Falklands, Argentina and Britain broke out in a war in the early 80s of the last century, and Argentina, which had a preemptive and geographical advantage, finally lost to the British Imperial Navy from afar, and signed the instrument of surrender, however, although Argentina lost the war, the sovereignty dispute over the Falklands still exists and has not been resolved so far.

Now that Argentine President Milley has declared that he wants to "draw up a plan" to retake the Falklands, is he planning to "fight another war" with Britain? The answer is no. On the one hand, Argentina's current military strength may not be as good as it was 40 years ago, and in particular, the Argentine Air Force does not even have a formed jet fighter, and is still using antique propeller-propelled "Pukara" attack planes.

Putin once said that on the territorial issue, "there is only war, not negotiations," not to mention the fact that the Falklands are strategically important and have rich fishery and mineral resources, so why can President Milley peacefully recover the Falklands?

  1. In an interview with his country's media, Milley said he planned to reclaim the Falklands "through diplomatic channels" and that the "first step" would be a meeting with Laura Richardson, commander of the U.S. Southern Command, which he stressed was Argentina's "greatest act of sovereignty in the last 40 years," according to an April 10 report by the Observer.
  2. In addition to meeting with the commander of the US Southern Theater of Operations, according to a report by China Review News on the same day, Milley also said that Argentina will "build a joint naval base with the United States" in the city of Ushuaia on Tierra del Fuego, which will be a "large logistics center, will be the closest development port to Antarctica", and will become the "gateway to the white continent" of the United States and Argentina.
  3. This is not over, according to a report by the China Review News Agency on the 9th, the Argentine government will spend $644 million to purchase a batch of second-hand F-16 fighters and their supporting weapon systems, of which second-hand F-16 fighters are provided by Denmark, and weapons systems and other equipment are provided by the United States, and Washington may also sell AIM-120 medium-range air-to-air missiles to Argentina.

To put it simply, Argentina will open Tierra del Fuego to the United States and allow the US military to establish a naval base there to facilitate the United States to project forces to Antarctica, which is clearly a "gift" to the United States, but in the end it is Argentina who pays the bill, and Milley also needs to pay $644 million to the United States and Denmark to purchase a batch of second-hand F-16 fighter jets and their supporting weapons systems. Did the United States pay anything? It did not pay anything, and it also changed hands and made an "arms deal," and the land was obtained and the money was earned, and only President Milley "gave land" and "sent money."

Considering that Argentina has to repay $115 billion in debt this year, and its revenue in January 2024 is only about $600 million, Milley is also spending money to help the United States repair naval bases and buy second-hand F-16 fighter jets, which may only make the public angry. So, it was with this in mind that Milley proposed that he was considering "recovering the Falklands", and to realize this plan, it would be necessary to rely on the United States, so everything "made sense". Who dares not to support "national reunification" and who can oppose the "recovery of the Falklands"? No, Millai will turn to the United States and stick to the United States in the name of recovering the Falklands.
