英國就有爭議的福克蘭群島已重申其強硬立場，外相警告南美國家不要與阿根廷勾結來收回被佔領的領土。
Britain's immediate response came after the South American “Mercosur,” including Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Paraguay, agreed to ban boats sailing under the Falklands flag from docking at certain ports.
英國的即時反應出現，在南美“南錐體共同市場”包括阿根廷、巴西、烏拉圭和巴拉圭，同意禁止掛福克蘭群島國旗航行的船隻在某些港口停泊後。
William Hague expressed Britain's opposition to the port ban, considering Argentina's attempt to reclaim its territory as “illegal.”
黑格表達英國對港口禁止的反對，考慮到阿根廷的嘗試來收回它的邊界為“非法”。
Falklands (known as Las Malvinas to Argentina) located about 250 nautical miles from Argentina, has been a British colony for over 180 years. However, Argentina also claimed sovereignty as it controlled the islands before, and the two countries fought a destructive 74-day war over the islands in 1982.
In a written statement to House of Commons, Hague stressed that the government made “justifiably robust” response to the initial decision by Uruguay on December 15 to block their docks.
“We made clear that the decision to close ports to ships flying the Falklands flag has no legal basis, and that it would be unacceptable and unbecoming for any Latin American democracy to collaborate in Argentina's attempts to economically blockade the Falkland Islands,” he added.
Hague also said that the British government would resist any attempts, which could lead the islanders to economic or other pressure.
However, Argentina accused Britain of breaching international laws, insisting the UK's oil-drilling operation is a clear instance of infringement on international laws.
Meanwhile in his 2012 statement Prime Minister David Cameron criticized the "unjustified and counterproductive" attempts by the Argentina government to disrupt shipping links to the islands.
"Whatever challenges we face in the UK, the British Government's commitment to the security and prosperity of the overseas territories, including the Falklands, remains undiminished."
"So let me be absolutely clear. We will always maintain our commitment to you on any question of sovereignty. Your right to self-determination is the cornerstone of our policy,” Cameron said.

英國就福克蘭群島爭端警告阿根廷
更新時間 2011年12月21日, 格林尼治標準時間19:49
英國政府警告阿根廷不要懷疑英國保護福克蘭群島的決心。
此前，由阿根廷、巴西、巴拉圭和烏拉圭等國組成的南美經濟聯盟決定禁止懸掛福克蘭群島旗幟的船隻使用這些國家的碼頭。
英國外交部形容這是阿根廷為孤立福克蘭島民和損害島民生計而採取的最新行動，並表示對此極為關切。
阿根廷聲稱對福克蘭群島，也就是他們所稱的馬爾維納斯群島擁有主權，但是在30年前爭奪這個群島主權的戰爭中被英國擊敗。
