In a clear demonstration of Latin American solidarity, Bolivia reaffirmed its historical support for Argentina's sovereignty over the Falkland Islands, South Georgia, South Sandwich Islands, and the surrounding maritime areas. This positioning, expressed before the United Nations General Assembly, is the result of the effective diplomatic management of President Javier Milei and Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno, who rebuilt trust and cooperation with Bolivia based on mutual respect and shared interests.
“It is an honor for the Plurinational State of Bolivia within the framework of this session to continue the traditional practice of solidarity and support for the issue of the Falkland Islands,” asserted Bolivia's Foreign Minister Fernando Aramayo before the Group of 77 and China, clearly supporting Argentina's sovereignty in the region.
He also added: “Ministers recalled that December 16, 2025, marks the 60th anniversary of the approval of resolution 2065 of the United Nations General Assembly and reaffirmed the need for the governments of the Republic of Argentina and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland to resume negotiations in accordance with the principles and objectives of the United Nations Charter and the relevant resolutions adopted by the General Assembly, in order to find a peaceful solution to the controversy over the sovereignty of the Falkland Islands, South Georgia, and South Sandwich Islands and the surrounding maritime areas as soon as possible.”
Additionally, the Bolivian representative emphasized "and appreciated Argentina's good disposition and willingness to hold negotiations for this purpose,” also mentioning resolution 37/9 which entrusted the Secretary-General with a mission of good offices.
