Rejected petition Falkland Islands to remain part of the United Kingdom
More details
The Falkland Islands have been a part of the United Kingdom for many years and this argument should be put to rest, once and for all.
The 1980s saw Argentina invade these Islands and rightly, the United Kingdom fought to take them back. There is no mandate for Argentina, or any other country, to claim the Falkland Islands as their sovereign territory.
