U.S. Should Respect Outcome of Falklands Referendum

Falkland Islands: U.S. Should Support Right to Self-Determination, with Nile Gardiner and Luke Coffey, Heritage Foundation Issue Brief #3864, February 27, 2013. "On March 10–11, the Falkland Islands, a British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic, will hold a referendum to decide whether to maintain allegiance to Great Britain. The islands are self-governing but maintain the British monarch as their head of state. The referendum is an answer to Argentina, which, though defeated by Britain in the 1982 Falklands War, is again waging a campaign of threats and intimidation in an effort to gain control of the islands. The U.S. should respect the outcome of the Falkland Islands referendum."
