Argentina has warned the UK it has two weeks to halt operations at a disputed oil project in the Falkland Islands or face legal action in a maritime court. The warning comes as Argentina continues to challenge British control over the territory, which it claims as its own. The UK has maintained a military presence in the Falklands since 1982, following the Falklands War. The oil project, located off the coast of the islands, has been a point of contention between the two nations. Argentina argues that the UK’s continued operations violate its sovereignty, while the UK asserts its legal rights to the territory. The legal threat marks a new escalation in the long-standing dispute, with Argentina threatening to take the matter to international arbitration. The deadline for the UK to respond is set for late September.
