This from the country that passed a law declaring Mother Earth is a living sentient being with equal rights as humans and banned GMOs and Monsanto:

Bolivian President Evo Morales’ visit to his Argentina counterpart Cristina Fernandez Wednesday will focus not only on bilateral agreements between the two nations, but also South America’s independence history, Cuban news agency Prensa Latina reported.
The two South American leaders will inaugurate a monument to independence heroine and South American guerrilla military leader Juana Azurduy.
The 15-meter high (52 feet) bronze statue has been erected outside the presidential palace in Buenos Aires in the place that a monument to Christopher Columbus once stood.

Good to see the Argies have got rid of that mad witch Kirchner and replaced her with Macri, a president who isn't obsessed with trying to steal British territory, who will not appoint a 'Falklands Minister' and will work to defrost Argentina's relations with Britain.

In fact, we have a bizarre situation in which Argentina's new president is more pro-British when it comes to the Falklands than Labour's Far-Left leader Jeremy Corbyn is.
