U.S. President Donald Trump raised questions about whether the United States would support Britain in another conflict over the Falkland Islands during an interview with a British broadcaster that aired Thursday. The comments introduced new tension into the long-running dispute over the British-controlled archipelago, which Argentina also claims.
Trump's remarks came as Argentine President Javier Milei prepared to deliver a televised national address regarding what his government described as diplomatic progress over the islands, located approximately 480 kilometers off Argentina's coast in the South Atlantic.
