<p><del class="ministerial">The UK position and ongoing support for the Falkland Islanders'
right of self-determination remains unchanged. As the Foreign Secretary made clear
on his recent visit to the Falkland Islands and in his meeting with Argentine Foreign
Minister Mondino at the G20 in February, as long as the Islanders wish to remain part
of the UK family, there can be no discussions on sovereignty. At their meeting on
17 January, the Foreign Secretary and President Milei discussed how to enhance UK-Argentina
relations through greater cooperation on areas of mutual interest including trade,
education, culture and enhancing people to people links. On the Falkland Islands,
the Foreign Secretary and President Milei said they would agree to disagree, and do
so politely.</del></p><p><ins class="ministerial">The Government is discussing with
our partners how to use immobilised assets to support Ukraine. G7 Leaders have tasked
Ministries to continue working on these issues and to report back ahead of the Leaders'
Summit in June. We will update the House as this develops, noting it would not be
appropriate to offer a running commentary on those discussions.</ins></p>
