Guillermo Carmona told an Argentine radio station that the government had put the focus back on the sovereignty claim over the islands. The Secretary of Malvinas has made a move that sparks new tensions over ownership of British overseas territory.

Malvinas is the name Argentines use for the Falkland Islands. Speaking on FM del Pueblo, Mr Carmona said that the UK excludes the central issue of Argentine policy, which is sovereignty. He added that the Argentine government has put the focus back on the sovereignty claim, along with the Secretary of Malvinas. The Falklands War padre cared for men's wounds, weapons and souls, and added that the persistence in the position of claiming sovereignty in accordance with the Argentine constitutions will create conditions for the UK to open up new dialogue with the South American nation on the status of the islands. In the South Atlantic, the Argentine government issued a fresh notification to a British construction company over plans to build a new port in the Falkland Islands, as stated by Carmona that Argentina must have an effective exercise of sovereignty. The provincial government of Tierra del Fuego, the tip of South America, asked BAM Nuttall to regularise the project it intends to develop with the Argentinian authorities.

Tories tell Boris to brace for battle At the beginning of August, Daniel Filmus, the previous Secretary of Malvinas to Carmona, branded the Falklands Islands government illegitimate and said that the project would see the illegal exploitation of natural resources that belong to all Argentine citizens. The resolution argued that the dispute continues to be a standing issue of hemispheric interest, as it came with the adoption of a declaration of support for the resumption of negotiations between Britain and Argentina over the Falkland Islands by the Assembly of American States OAS.

It called for further dialogue on the ownership of the South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands, another British overseas territory in the south Atlantic. In a statement, Argentine foreign minister Felipe Sol thanked the countries of the hemisphere for their continued solidarity. He said that the recovery of the full exercise of sovereignty over the islands and surrounding ocean is a permanent and non-renounceable goal for Argentina. Daniel Filmus, the previous secretary of Malvinas, said that the support was a clear sign that it is a regional cause, not just an Argentine one. The resolution was by consensus, and Carmona said it was very significant.
