Argentina amenință Marea Britanie cu justiția și îi dă ultimatum două săptămâni să oprească proiectul petrolier din Insulele Falkland

Argentinian President Javier Milei has given the UK two weeks to halt the Sea Lion oil project near the Falkland Islands, threatening international arbitration if exploration continues. This escalates tensions over sovereignty claims, with Milei denouncing the project as illegal resource exploitation. He criticized the UN for its inaction on the issue, calling it ineffective. The UK defense minister responded, asserting Argentina lacks the capacity to forcibly occupy the islands. The Sea Lion field, estimated to hold 1.7 billion barrels of oil, is set for extraction by companies holding valid licenses. A 2013 referendum showed overwhelming support for maintaining British Overseas Territory status.
