MODERATORS
I think this was probably used as a reminder of "you're no longer a member, Brexit means Brexit", but I think it's in the interest of EU members to assert once again the importance of international law and basic common sense. Argentianian claims are totally baseless of either and are pure expansionism.
PS: And let's not forget that Falklanders were not allowed to vote on the Brexit referendum.
Sounds like a good reason to want to leave the UK to be honest.
True, but not necessarily to join Argentina, with whom they have very little in common and that already tried to invade once.
My thoughts as well.
Most of the (English) people I know were not allowed to vote on Brexit (living outside the UK you cannot vote after so many years..14 i think?).
well, they aren't citizens of the UK.
but they're definitely suffering consequences of Brexit..
