Andy Burnham has vowed to keep the Falkland Islands British. The Prime Minister said the UK “will stand firm in the face of any threats” to the sovereignty of the Falkland Islands after Argentina’s president Javier Milei escalated tensions over the South Atlantic archipelago. Burnham raised the issue with Donald Trump, an ally of Mr Milei, during talks at the United Nations in New York. The PM said: “I didn’t react immediately when the Argentinian president made his recent comments, but in this forum, I think it’s right for me to set out the position clearly, and the clear position is: we will stand firm in the face of any threats. “We will defend the right of the Falkland Islanders to self-determination and to remain British. “And I just wanted the president to know directly from me, that’s the clear British position, and he very much understood what I was saying.” #AndyBurnham #Falklands #DonaldTrump #FalklandsIslands #GBNews Keep up to date with GB News at gbnews.com or on X
