PRO deputy Fernando Iglesias met with the British ambassador to Argentina, Kirsty Hayes , KontraInfo reported. According to the portal, “the meeting took place within the framework of the Argentine government's request to be a 'global partner' of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).”
The Milei government wants our country to be accepted as a 'global partner' of NATO . If this is the case, " Argentina will have to cooperate with the members of the alliance, sharing intelligence and participating in military operations. But NATO would not have the duty to help Argentina in a hypothetical war conflict," KontraInfo warned.
“Considering that Argentina and the United Kingdom are involved in a dispute over the Anglo-Saxon country’s usurpation of Argentine territory, specifically the Malvinas, South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands and the corresponding maritime and island spaces, this meeting between the two officials caught the attention of many,” the portal highlighted, adding that “it is expected that the United Kingdom will not allow Argentina to join NATO; although there is speculation about some kind of ‘agreement’ between the governments of the aforementioned countries, since President Javier Milei has been accommodating towards the British government.”
In January this year, David Cameron, the British chancellor , offered Milei 'trade advantages' in exchange for renouncing 'sovereignty claims' , at a meeting at the World Economic Forum in Davos.
After that meeting, Cameron travelled to the Malvinas Islands, the first time an official of his rank had visited them in more than three decades, and Milei's government did not question his arrival in Argentine territory. The foreign minister, Diana Mondino , refused to argue with her British counterpart in the face of such an affront. Even the presidential spokesman, Manuel Adorni , said that Cameron 's trip to our islands was an 'issue on the agenda' of the United Kingdom and considered that the Argentine government does not have to ' give an opinion on the agenda of other countries'.
It is worth noting that the meeting between MP Iglesias and the pirate ambassador does not surprise anyone. As KontraInfo reports, in 2012, on the thirtieth anniversary of the 1982 war, Fernando Iglesias presented a document entitled “Malvinas, an alternative vision” which he signed together with Jorge Lanata, Juan José Sebreli, Emilio de Ípola, Pepe Eliaschev, Rafael Filippelli, Roberto Gargarella, Fernando Iglesias, Santiago Kovadloff, Gustavo Noriega, Marcos Novaro, José Miguel Onaindia, Vicente Palermo, Eduardo Antin (Quintín), Luis Alberto Romero, Hilda Sabato, Daniel Sabsay and Beatriz Sarlo , where the legal claim of the Argentine State and people for sovereignty over our Islands was criticized. In this document, which was published in its entirety by the newspaper La Nación, they stated that History is not 'reversible' , and therefore considered it absurd to try to 'return national borders to a situation that existed almost two centuries ago'.
The document by Iglesias and his cronies called for respect for the inhabitants of the islands and for them to be recognised as 'subjects of law' and added: "Respecting their way of life, as expressed in its first transitional clause, implies abdicating the intention to impose on them a sovereignty, citizenship and government that they do not want. The obsessive affirmation of the principle 'The Malvinas are Argentine' and the ignorance or contempt for the subjugation that this implies weaken the just and peaceful demand for the withdrawal of the United Kingdom and its military base, and make it impossible to move towards a management of natural resources negotiated between Argentines and islanders."
In 2018, Fernando Iglesias was “reported for the alleged commission of the crime of “treason against the Homeland” as established by the Criminal Code of the Nation in Articles 214 and 215, regarding his statements on the Malvinas issue,” KontraInfo reported. The complainant, lawyer Diego Ceferino Mazzieri , argued in his complaint: “National Deputy Fernando Adolfo Iglesias has been continuously maintaining in journalistic and bibliographical media, without rectification and fallaciously, from 2012 to date, that the Malvinas, Georgias, South Sandwich, Orkney and South Atlantic Islands are territories under British sovereignty; a situation that constitutes a criminal offense of Treason against the Homeland given that with his libels, newspaper articles and public statements he contributes to distorting the historical truth in order to undermine our territorial integrity as the Argentine Nation, a situation that is aggravated by the fact that he is currently a representative of the People of the Argentine Nation.”
As can be seen, Milei's government found in Iglesias a pawn who puts his greatest efforts and continues to carry out the ignominious enterprise of surrender and betrayal, in order to undermine our integrity, not only territorial, but also; trying to drag Argentina and its people with a policy of submission to the colonialism that invades our territories and seas, predator of our natural resources and responsible for having taken the lives of 649 patriotic Argentines in 1982.
As the song Solo le pido a Dios says: “...if a traitor can do more than a few, may those few not forget it easily.”
