Are the Falkland Islands Argentine? Are the Falkland Islands British? This question has been a central theme in the political affairs of Argentina and Great Britain for many years. This archipelago is located just 600 kilometers from the city of Río Gallegos, capital of the Province of Santa Cruz, Argentina. What is the history of the Falkland Islands? There is a huge debate about who discovered the Falkland Islands. France, Spain, and the United Kingdom claim the discovery of this archipelago, as well as sovereignty over the territory. And where does Argentina fit into all this? In 1820, the government of the Province of Buenos Aires, now an independent state from the Spanish crown, occupied the Falkland Islands and claimed sovereignty over them. In 1833, British Captain John James Onslow took possession of the archipelago on behalf of the British government, initiating the British occupation of the Falkland Islands. But the Argentine people never stopped fighting for sovereignty over this territory. In early 1982, the Argentine military junta decided to invade the Falkland Islands, beginning the Falkland Islands War. Argentines and British fought for two months and twelve days over sovereignty over the Falkland Islands. Who won the Falkland Islands War? To which country do the Falkland Islands belong? These are some of the topics we'll cover today. If you want to know the answers to these questions, stay until the end of the video.
