Argentina Declares War On Falkland Islands Oil Reserves, Warning Of 'Criminality' -- Express
ARGENTINA has declared war on the Falkland Islands’ oil reserves after the country’s Congress today passed a law imposing criminal sanctions on any “illegal exploration around Las Malvinas”.
The Argentine Embassy in London tonight issued a statement warning British companies and individuals they face prison sentences of up to 15 years.
Fines equivalent to the value of 1.5 million barrels of oil–about £100million at current prices–would also be levied.
The move by Buenos Aeries is a major ratcheting of the tension in the region and has triggered a furious response by the Foreign Office reminding Argentina that the Falklands are British sovereign territory.
The new law means companies would also be banned from operating in Argentina and any oil found or exploration equipment would be confiscated.
