Yes, The Falkland Island (Islas Malvinas)are part of South America, like Tierra del Fuego, Is Galapagos and another islands. The Falklanders wish to be British and I believe they have reason. The argentinian people must think about that. I'm argentinien and I believe than we can live together in peace. Is my wish. The Falklands were ceeded to Great Britain in 1833. Argentina's claim is false & illegal as it did not exist as a country until 1853. The islands are over 300 miles off the coast of the South American continent. The population speak English and are culturally, ethnically and historically British. Under International Maritime law Britain has the right of exploration for mineral wealth for up to 200 miles of the coast. An argeement for bilateral cooperation was deemed invalid by the present President of Argentina on her entry to office.
