I think they recently had a rfeferfendum and about 95% said they wanted to stay under the UK. The Argentina Government said the wishes of the residents was irrelevant.

I thought I remembered reading that the referendum was 99%. But who cares what the people want anyway? Why should they get to choose just because they live there. Just as long as the hbic gets what she wants.

Actually, it was only 99.8% of the Falklanders who recently voted to remain British.

If the Argentina Government thinks the wishes of the residents was irrelevant, how is the Pope going to reconcile that with past Papal statements supporting the right of self-determination?
