Petition Request our allies USA and Spain to recognise British Overseas Territories.

All 14 Overseas territories have the right to self determination. Spain demands Gibraltar and adds to tension between the UK and Argentina. When Argentina (who gets UK foreign aid) acknowledge this sovereignty our military can be withdrawn thus saving millions in tax payers money that the NHS need.

Facts
1)The USA does not recognise the Falkland Islands but recognises sunny Diego Garcia.
2)Falkland Islanders held a referendum in March 2013 and 99% wanted to remain a British Overseas territory.
3)Argentina state that because the Falkland Islands are close to them it should be theirs. Please look at this map and see that by that logic Chile should have a bigger claim. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tierra_del_Fuego
4)Argentina is in the G20.
5) Why is the UK made to look like bad guys?
