President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner (Pictured) used TWITTER to criticize British plans to carry out military tests in her region. She also complained to the United Nations about Britain's "militarization of the South Atlantic".
"Serious, very serious," Kirchner wrote. "Royal Navy, occupying colonial force in Falkland Islands, reports military exercise with missiles on the coast of East Falkland. Typical nineteenth century colonialism. Anachronistic use of force in violation of international law. They do not care. A clear example of double standards. Conclusion ... pirates for ever?"
