Britain has once more resorted to threats of using nuclear weapons on non-nuclear armed states in a bid to intimidate members of the Mercosur bloc.
After Mercosur members, including Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay, decided to ban British-flagged military vessels from using their ports, the former head of Britain's Royal Navy said the British government should send a nuclear submarine to the British-occupied Las Malvinas (the Falklands).
The archipelago is located about 250 nautical miles from Argentina, which has been pursuing its rightful claim on sovereignty over the islands for over thirty years.
Argentina has accused the British government of violating international laws saying the UK's oil-drilling operation is a clear instance of infringement on international laws.
“Malvinas is not an Argentine cause, it's a global cause because they are taking our fisheries and oil resources,” said Argentine president Cristina Fernandez.
Furthermore, Uruguay president Jose Mujica considered solidarity among South America's neighbors as the most significant issue concerning his country's foreign policy.
“For the moment, this means accepting that this territory is a colonial British position in our America,” said Mujica.
In response to the South American countries' solidarity, the British government decided to flex its nuclear muscles threatening to use nuclear weapons against non-nuclear states.
This is not the first time that the British government proposes the use of nuclear weapons against a non-nuclear country.
In 2002, former British defence secretary Geoff Hoon announced that the British government was ready to use nuclear weapons against non-nuclear states such as Iraq.
British government's boast of its nuclear arsenal unveils its hypocritical nature as it is bent on curtailing non-nuclear states' energy programs while remaining a staunch advocate of other nuclear armed states including Israel.
