Days after India extended support to Argentina's campaign to restart international negotiation on the Falklands territorial issue in the southern Atlantic Ocean, a British official on Monday said there was "no doubt" about the United Kingdom's sovereignty over the islands.
A spokesperson of the British High Commission told The Hindu that the citizens of the islands had conveyed that they did not wish to hold further discussion on sovereignty.
"The United Kingdom has no doubt about its sovereignty over the Falkland Islands and South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands and surrounding maritime areas, nor about the principle and the right of the Falkland Islanders to self-determination as enshrined in the UN Charter," the spokesperson said.
