Trump Falklands Hint Pressures UK, Bolsters Milei Sovereignty Push

US President Trump has cast doubt on UK willingness to defend the Falklands, citing internal UK problems, and promised to review Washington's position. Argentina's government, publicly silent, privately sees this as supporting President Milei's recent shift on sovereignty, as Buenos Aires prepares to send Congress a reform criminalizing hydrocarbon exploitation around the islands. The dispute is becoming militarized, opening a new diplomatic front.
