Argentina marks Belgrano sinking

It doesn't look like the wounds have healed for either side.

Quote:

Argentina has held ceremonies to mark the 30th anniversary of the sinking of the warship General Belgrano during the Falklands War with the UK.

"On days like these, we remember that there is a mission that is not over," Belgrano survivor Admiral Jorge Castro said at the ceremony.
"There are 323 voices calling to us that there is an open wound. Every day they they remind us that the Malvinas are, were and will be Argentine."

But yes, desperate and underhand. Validates our current tactic of ignoring them IMHO.

The focus is now on oil and mineral resources in the area.

So can you say "Mr. Fernando Zylberberg has missed the bus" or does that sound too 1930s?
