Ifit was in the vicinity, it would not be the first time, he added, recalling that, in 2003, Argentina had received intelligence information about spilled nuclear materials in the Malvinas (Falklands). He noted that the United Kingdom had signed on, with a reservation, to a treaty on a nuclear-weapon-free zone in Latin America. However, it was apparently not in compliance with that instrument, unlike all the other signatories, he said.”), with United Nations Press Release, Press Conference by Permanent Representative of the United Kingdom (Feb. 10, 2012), at http://www.un.org/News/briefings/docs/2012/120210_UK.doc.htm (“Argentina’s allegations that the United Kingdom was deliberately increasing its military presence in the South Atlantic was ‘manifestly absurd,’ Mark Lyall Grant, the latter country’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, said at a Headquarters press conference today.”).
