> Britain insisted on Friday that the Falkland Islands are British after Argentine President Javier Milei said the “winds of change” appeared to favour Argentina’s claim, citing Washington’s willingness to reconsider its neutrality. The dispute returned to the spotlight after Donald Trump threatened to intervene and a British-Israeli oil project near the islands angered Argentina.
