Why is Argentina reigniting the Falklands dispute?

President Javier Milei says sovereignty over the islands remains a national objective.

A Europa pagará os EUA para fornecer ajuda militar à Ucrânia.

It has been dormant for decades, but the row between Argentina and the United Kingdom over the Falkland Islands has been revived.

Começou com um projeto conjunto de exploração de petróleo britânico-israelense ao largo da costa norte do arquipélago, ao qual Buenos Aires se opôs veementemente.

President Javier Milei has now threatened to sanction companies operating there.

His push to reclaim the islands was bolstered by United States President Donald Trump’s comment that he may reconsider Washington’s position on the territory.

Britain and Argentina went to war over the islands more than four decades ago.

A disputa poderia escalar para outra confrontação armada.
