Britain Should Spend Money on Poor, not Malvinas, Fernandez Says

Great Britain should be spending more money on its poor than on the Malvinas Islands, said Argentine President Cristina Fernandez, responding to London's announcement that it was increasing military expenditures in the contested archipelago. In addressing a ceremony to honor Argentine soldiers who died fighting in the 1982 Malvinas War, Fernandez dismissed claims that Argentina poses a military threat to Great Britain's control of the islands. teleSUR
