Articles for deletion/International opinion on the South Atlantic sovereignty dispute
A number of nations and international organizations have weighed-in on the South Atlantic sovereignty dispute, encompassing several islands in the southern Atlantic Ocean currently under the de facto control of the United Kingdom, but claimed by Argentina. The issue of international support for the respective positions of Argentina and the United Kingdom has figured into the rhetoric surrounding the debate. Some commentators, such as former Margaret Thatcher aide Nile Gardiner, have declared that Argentina faces growing "international isolation," while others, such as British journalist and University of London lecturer Richard Gott, have described Britain as "increasingly isolated."

Standing bodies
Since 1964, Argentina has lobbied its case at the Special Committee on Decolonization of the United Nations, which annually recommends dialogue to resolve the dispute. The UN General Assembly has passed several resolutions on the issue. In 1988, the General Assembly reiterated a 1965 request that both countries negotiate a peaceful settlement to the dispute and respect the interests of the Falkland Islanders and the principles of UN General Assembly resolution 1514. Most recently, the Decolonization Committee has called for the General Assembly to reiterate that "the way to end that 'special and particular colonial situation' was the peaceful and negotiated settlement of the sovereignty dispute between the Governments of Argentina and the United Kingdom."

The European Union recognizes the de facto UK administration of the disputed territory but takes no position as to its sovereignty. Nonetheless, the EU classifies the islands as an overseas country or territory of the UK, subject to EU law in some areas. In 2012, EU ambassador Diez Torres more fully explained the EU's position by stating that "the Falklands/Malvinas issue does not belong to the framework of the EU foreign policy. We have a foreign policy that does not cover everything, besides the EU criteria is that there must be a full consensus."

The Organization of American States has declared that "the question of the Malvinas Islands is a matter of enduring hemispheric concern" and has called on Argentina and the United Kingdom to enter into direct negotiations on the subject, while stopping short of recognizing the sovereignty of either side over the islands.

Ad hoc organizations and international summits
A number of ad hoc and consultative assemblies have produced statements with regard to the Argentine-UK dispute. In some cases these resolutions have been contained within broader position statements dealing with unrelated topics. As such, they may not be entirely reflective of the position of each individual signatory.


 * The 2007 meeting of the Rio Group, held in Guyana, produced a final resolution which read, in part, that attendees support "the legitimate rights of the Argentine Republic in the sovereignty dispute with the United Kingdom over the Malvinas question." Nine Caribbean states attended the conference, including Grenada and Saint Kitts and Nevis.


 * The 2012 Seventh Ministerial UK-Caribbean Forum produced a final resolution which read, in part, that attendees "support the principle and the right to self determination for all peoples, including the Falkland Islanders."


 * The Conference of Defense Ministers of the Americas passed a declaration in 2012 expressing its concern over "the increasing militarization of the South Atlantic and the armed exercises being carried out on the Malvinas Islands" and backing "Argentina's legitimate claim over the Malvinas, South Georgia and Sandwich Islands." Canada voted against the resolution with the explanation that it believed "only the residents of the islands under British control have the right to examine their future" while the United States abstained from voting and noted its feeling that the question was a bilateral matter best left for Argentina and the UK to sort out.


 * The 2013 Summit of South American and African countries, held in Equatorial Guinea, produced a final resolution which read, in part, that attendees "recognize the legitimate rights of the Argentine Republic in the sovereignty dispute over the Malvinas Islands, South Georgias and South Sandwich Islands."
