Well, he's done it now. He didn't just touch that third rail, he grabbed it in both hands and stuck his tongue on it.
"On national television, the President endorsed Britain's position on the islanders' supposed right to self-determination and, to justify his surrender, even suggested that the Argentines he governs are not worthy enough to recover the territory colonized by the United Kingdom"

Daniel Filmus, also former Secretary of the Malvinas, Antarctica, and the South Atlantic, added in an interview with this newspaper that the President's speech "is of unusual gravity" because it simultaneously ignores United Nations Resolution 2065, international law, and the Argentine Constitution. "In all three cases, it is very clear that the Malvinas situation is a case of decolonization, almost the only one in the world that is not based on self-determination and should not be carried out at the request of the islanders, but rather through bilateral negotiation between the United Kingdom and Argentina," he said. Filmus explained that "British population policy was part of colonial policy, because those who lived there were Argentines, and after the war, a population was established," and concluded: "Therefore, you cannot ask the usurper if he wants to continue usurping."

The President arrived at the cenotaph in Plaza San Martín shortly before nine in the morning, accompanied by his sister Karina, the Ministers of Defense, Luis Petri, and Security, Patricia Bullrich, and the Mayor of Buenos Aires, Jorge Macri, with whom the Libertarians are experiencing a period of intense tension because they will run on separate lists in the local elections in May.
After greeting the entire cabinet and singing the anthem, the President gave a brief speech in which he said that no one takes Argentina's demands seriously because we are the "scum of the world," because, in his opinion, "the leadership is known worldwide for its corruption and incompetence." Milei also implied that our country cannot claim sovereignty because "we are not prosperous," and assured that his government will work so that—according to him—when the country deserves it, that is, "when Argentina becomes a power," the "Falklanders will decide to vote for us with their feet" and "prefer to be Argentine without even needing dissuasion or persuasion to achieve it."
