Furthermore, the Argentine president compared the claim for the sovereignty of the Malvinas Islands with what happened between China and the British for the possession of Hong Kong.
Although he maintained that “it will take years,” Milei considered that the South Atlantic controversy “has to be resolved through diplomatic means, with the model that China used in the case of Hong Kong.”
The journalistic note was carried out by the Chilean newspaper El Mercurio , and the media outlet highlighted the striking decoration of the president's office , including posters of Thatcher and Ronald Reagan, a photo of former president Carlos Menem and a shirt of the Argentine national team. soccer.
"We claim the sovereignty of the islands, we consider that the Malvinas Islands are Argentine (...) and are being occupied by the United Kingdom," said the president. "And we consider that this has to be resolved through diplomatic means, with the model that “used China in the case of Hong Kong.”
It is worth remembering that in the case of said Asian region , sovereignty was returned to China in 1997 after the colonial rule of British pirates.
