Argentina's new ** Milley, an Internet celebrity who suddenly appeared, surprised people. His presence seems to have brought a breath of fresh air to Argentine politics, but it has also sparked a series of controversies. In contrast, Zelensky's political path seems to be more formal, he gained recognition through his acting career, while Milley became popular through the Internet celebrity route, quickly becoming popular in Argentina with his exaggerated performances and rhetoric.

The difference between Zelensky and Milley is clear, one is mainly singing, and the other is showing talent in live webcasts. Some of Milley's policies are even more shocking, such as the abolition of the Argentine peso, full dollarization, and even the proposal to give up sovereignty over the Falklands, which are unacceptable in the eyes of any sovereign state.

In the hearts of Argentines, the Falklands have always been an inseparable part and one of the national goals that generations of Argentines have worked together. Although Argentina was underdeveloped in terms of industry, the decline of Britain provided them with hope of recovering the Falklands. In 1982, when Britain was at its most vulnerable, Argentina saw an opportunity to recover the Falklands. The Falklands are close to Argentina and far from the United Kingdom, which gives Argentina a geographical advantage. Therefore, Argentina at that time decided to start the Falklands War in an attempt to regain the lost territory.

In the early days of the war, the British garrison was small, while the Argentines sent a large number of troops, which allowed them to quickly occupy the Falklands. The victory lifted the whole of Argentina uplifted, people forgot about the economic difficulties, and the whole country cheered. For the British, the defeat was a humiliating affair, especially at a time when the sun never set on the decline of the empire.

However, Milley, as a new **, proposed to give up sovereignty over the Falklands, which largely hurt the feelings of those Argentines who fought and died for the Falklands. His remarks and policies have sparked widespread controversy and have led to a re-examination of Argentina's position and decision-making. While Milley's policy may have had its own considerations and rationale, relinquishing sovereignty over the Falklands was undoubtedly a major historic decision for Argentina.

The Falklands War not only affected relations between Argentina and the United Kingdom, but also the political landscape of the entire South American region. Now, with the rise to power of Millet and his series of policies, there are many doubts and worries about the future of Argentina. Time will tell where this country will go.
