Argentina's Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno responded on social media to the United Kingdom's stance on the Falkland Islands, stating that the 2013 referendum lacks validity and rejecting the islanders' right to self-determination. This came amid tensions between the United States and Britain over potential shifts in US support for London. Quirno urged resuming bilateral negotiations to resolve the sovereignty dispute.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio denied that the United States will withdraw support for the United Kingdom over the Falkland Islands. Rubio downplayed a leaked Pentagon email suggesting possible reprisals against London. The matter relates to Britain's lack of involvement in the Middle East war.
