    Also…I can’t figure out how to edit on this app…this seems like anti UK bot posting. Which there is a lot of. Putin is really angry with us apparently.

        I did, it does confuse me a little. As a colonial power UK gets all the hate. France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Germany etc get let off. Even though UK released it’s colonies in legal and peaceful ways on the whole.

          Islas Malvinas

          France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Germany etc get let off.

          Don’t worry, they are also remembered

            So I was going to fact check myself before I responded. But I thought it’d be more interesting to be wrong on what I think I know.

            Faulkands were never occupied by Argentina. They were claimed for France and then removed by the British. It’s been British ever since and I think the few occupants want to remain British.
