Argentine President Javier Milei has escalated his country's long-running sovereignty dispute with the United Kingdom over the Falkland Islands, asserting that global "winds of change" support Argentina's claims. Speaking on Thursday, Milei vowed to implement swifter sanctions and new measures to halt an oil project near the British-controlled archipelago.

Milei cited recent remarks by US President Donald Trump, who suggested Washington might reconsider its support for British sovereignty over the islands, as a favorable policy shift that bolsters Argentina's position in the territorial conflict.
