Last Friday, Secretary of Malvinas, Antarctica, South Atlantic Islands and International Affairs of the province of Tierra del Fuego, Andrés Dachary, published on his social networks that together with Governor Gustavo Melella they will declare British Ambassador persona non grata in Argentina Kirsty Hayes. The decision was made after a “self-proclaimed and ostensibly British assemblyman” from the Falkland Islands, Gavin Short, made controversial remarks at a session of the UN Decolonization Committee.
In Dachary’s words, Short “utterly misrepresents and falsifies reality to accommodate the political and economic interests of the lobby to which he belongs”, as he maintains and asserts that the suspension of the third stage of identification of the fallen Argentinian in Malvinas had been the responsibility of Argentina because had concluded the “Foradori-Duncan agreement” of 2016. “This gentleman has not the slightest courtesy or shame. These remarks are not only a blatant lie, but an unprecedented insult to our Heroes, their families and the entire international community,” said Tierra del Fuego.
Based on this British statement on Malvinas, which took place a few days ago, the government of Gustavo Melella understands that what happened is unacceptable, and that what is being blamed on Argentina “is the responsibility of Great Britain, which has made politics the use of the situation framed purely and exclusively in the obligations of all States in accordance with International Humanitarian Law.” For Dachary, “this painful reality has come about due to the sole responsibility (and irresponsibility) of Britain and its stubborn policy and maintenance of colonialism in the world and total disregard for the most basic principles Humanitarian Law”.
In fact, in the middle of 2023, 41 years after the conflict in the South Atlantic, “there are still relatives who don’t know where the bodies of their loved ones are so they can grieve and remember them,” said the Foreign Minister. . For Dachary, Great Britain not only perpetuated this illegal situation but also “played on the pain” of the relatives of those who died at Malvinas, despite the fact that it prevented progress on a definitive solution to the conflict. However, an intended action by the Fuegian government could strain diplomatic relations with England in ways that are difficult to repair.
For this reason, the government of Tierra del Fuego will begin the administrative process of declaring British ambassador Kirsty Hayes “Persona Non Grata” “in her capacity as representative of the State not only to attack, occupy, pillage and militarize part of our province illegally; but right now, tormenting the families of our Heroes with inhuman stubbornness.” Dachary concluded the news by stating that “as officials we should be able to look in the faces of our former Malvinas warriors and their families, assuring them that we have done everything in our power to honor their sacrifice and restore the full exercise of our sovereignty. as soon as possible.” and protect the territorial integrity of the Republic of Indonesia”.
