The Falklands, located near the east coast of Argentina is still a colony of the United Kingdom. Most of the citizens, wouldn't want to see this any other way. They are happy to be British and even celebrate liberation day on the 14th of June in the capital city: Port Stanley. This, as a result of the Argentinian invasion of 1982. But although the people don't want to become a sovereignty, the president of Argentina, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner does. She even called Britain: "Arrogant" for not negotiating about the sovereignty of the Falklands.

Let them be British
I think the Falklands should remain under the British crown. They like it there, they've been their for a long time, and most importantly: They like it. So why would you change something that isn't wanted by the ones the change applies to. Yes, the Falklands actually geographically belong to Argentina but I think the urge about who has what part of the world is so 1900. Things are taken care of by Britain in the Falklands now, and they're doing just fine. I think the Argentinian government, and especially the president, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner shouldn't be so arrogant and greedy for land themselves.
