One of the very first things that was said in our online media was ............. the Pope presents a delicate diplomatic problem for the Brits


He is on record, within the last couple of years, as having said that the Falklands belonged to Argentina.


In other words, he is just like ALL other Argentinians who believe the same thing

Particularly thorny subject here in Wales, Sylvia.

First, we are very proud of a Welsh colony (Y Gwladfa) who settled in Patagonia 150 years ago. Many are bilingual (Spanish/Welsh) and are fiercely Argentinian and no doubt would have fought to gain the Malvinas in 1980's.

Second, we have the most visual reminder of the bravery of our boys in defeating the Argentinian invasion of the Falkland Islands in Simon Weston, a boy from Nelson in Caerphilly area.

It will have to be resolved one day, and I wonder if a long term approach (like Hong Kong) might provide the answer. And Pope could help that process.

Probably not in top of Pope Francis's in-tray this morning. :-)
