She said the government had made it clear to Argentina that it was prepared to hold talks but would not negotiate on sovereignty."We're not prepared to discuss the sovereignty of the Malvinas Islands against the wishes of the Malvinas people."Earlier this week a British man became the first Malvinas islander to choose Argentine citizenship.James Peck was handed his national identity card by President Fernandez, during a ceremony to mark the 29th anniversary of the end of the Malvinas War.Mr Peck's father Terry, who died in 2006, had been a member of the Malvinas Islands Defence Force.Sir Sandy Woodward, the retired admiral who led the British taskforce which set sail for the Malvinas in 1982, told a newspaper earlier this week he feared the islands were "now perilously close to being indefensible".He told the Daily Mail: "Twenty-nine years ago today, we re-claimed the Malvinas for Britain in one of the most remarkable campaigns since the Second World War."The simple truth is without aircraft carriers and without the Americans, we would not have any hope of doing the same again today."Adm Woodward questioned whether the US would continue to support Britain's sovereignty over the islands, pointing to Washington's call last week for negotiations.The Americans' reference to the islands by their Argentinian name - the Malvinas - didn't "leave too much doubt about which way the wind may be blowing", he said.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------James Peck es el primer kelper que acepta la ciudadanía Argentina, su padre murió en 2006 y miembro de las FIDF.Woodward dijo que las islas están por ser indefendibles. Sin portaaviones y sin los US no tienen ninguna esperanza de hacer lo mismo que en 1982, hoy.Los US llaman a las islas por su nombre Argentino, Las Malvinas. No deja mucha duda sobre en que dirección los vientos pueden estar soplando.Es viejo, pero me interesaron esos datos una vez hechas las declaraciones de US.</blockquote>
