Timerman: “Malvinas” strategy is working, not even English newspapers support Cameron

Foreign Minister Héctor Timerman assured that Argentina’s strategy on the Malvinas Islands sovereignty claim “is working” and added that “the only way for England to get out of this mess is through direct negotiations with Argentina.”

“Not even English newspapers are supporting Cameron,” Timerman said on a radio interview, explaining that “the only way for England to get out of this mess is through direct negotiations with Argentina.”

“This proves that the Argentine strategy is working out. We’ve gathered much regional support and commitment from international organizations,” the minister said from El Salvador, one of the Central American countries that are part of his current tour.

“I have no doubt that Argentina is looking for a civilized and peaceful solution through negotiations,” he stated and assured that the local Government “will not reply to any of Cameron’s military-toned affronts.”

Timerman cited English newspapers as proof of Cameron’s lack of support.

“Not even the conservative ‘The Times’ supports Cameron. They say he is heading the wrong strategy and that what he’s doing is unreal,” he explained.

He closed by once again ratifying that Argentina “believes in the peaceful resolution of conflicts” and urged the United Kingdom to “pick up the phone and give (UN Secretary General) Ban Kim Moon a call” who every year urges both nations to sit down and negotiate.

His statements were made in response to the news that British intelligent services had warned Prime Minister David Cameron that Argentina was planning an alleged “phoney fishermen’s invasion” to the islands on the 30th anniversary of the Malvinas War.
