Argentina peace or war choice

-

Foreign Secretary Mr Francis Pym today made it clear in the Commons that, if Argentina will not enter into peace talks, Britain will take military action to end the illegal occupation of the Falklands.

The Foreign Secretary repeatedly emphasized the fact that it was Argentinia­n obstructio­n and intransige­nce which had led to the breakdown of peace initiative­s.

He said that, if Argentina had accepted the President of Peru’s peace plan, a ceasefire could have come into force at 5pm today.

The Foreign Secretary’s assurances were wholeheart­edly supported by Tory MPs.
