美國總統川普(Donald Trump)昨(8月31日)表示,美國正在重新檢視對於福克蘭群島的立場,此前有英媒報導稱,華府正以福克蘭群島議題為要脅,要求英國增加國防開支。

《法新社》報導,川普週一在白宮被媒體詢問,美國是否正在重新審視對於福克蘭群島的立場,他回答:「我總是會重新檢視每一個立場,這只是其中一個。」

隨後媒體又提問,華府是否希望英國首相柏南(Andy Burnham)領導的政府增加國防預算,川普回覆:「英國遇到了一點麻煩,但最終會解決的。」

英媒《每日電訊報》(Daily Telegraph)上週在報導中指出,為了「鼓勵」英國達成軍費占GDP5%的目標,五角大廈正在審視對於福克蘭群島的立場,而華府可能會以「否認英國對於福克蘭群島的主權」做為威脅手段。

美國國務院今年4月曾向《法新社》表示:「我們對福克蘭群島的立場依然是保持中立。」

1982年,阿根廷出兵佔領英國治下的福克蘭群島(阿根廷稱馬爾維納斯群島,Islas Malvinas),引發了福克蘭群島戰爭,最終阿根廷軍不敵英國遠征軍,英國保有福克蘭群島主權。

而在今年的世界盃足球賽四強賽中,阿根廷以2比1擊敗英格蘭,賽後阿根廷部分隊員舉起了「福克蘭群島屬於阿根廷」的布條,阿根廷足球協會因此被國際足總(FIFA)開罰32.1萬美元。
