The Argentina-UK Islands Dispute

Abstract The Falkland Islands/Islas Malvinas sovereignty dispute has created an unstable relationship between Argentina and the UK for almost two centuries. Current geopolitical and economic conditions, including the hydrocarbon industry�s volatility, trade renegotiations necessitated by Brexit combined with the EU-Mercosur agreement, and international pressures, are optimal for warming bilateral ties and bringing this sovereignty dispute to an end. This article outlines a solution that allows the two nations to come together to form an agreement.
