Could Argentina have economic gain if they work with Britain on oil exploration?

Could Argentina have economic gain if they work with Britain on oil exploration?
Argentina making noise again over Falkland islands territorial right due to Britain's oil exploration in the South Atlantic, but I think Argentinean government is using this dispute to distract its people from the on going concerns like Argentina's economic problems. If Argentina work with Britain instead of being hindrance in the South Atlantic Argentina's economic worries might go away because of money coming from oil, old enemy's might become good friends.

are you by any chance an american, because no British person in their right mind not even the bnp would think twice about the answer to this. Argentina can get stuffed. And if our special friends have different ideas they can take the special agreement and shove it where the sun doesn't shine. We dont dictate border control with mexico to the usa so keep out of our business. Edit: fine get yourselves a history of the world or an atlas and tell me when argie had claim to OUR island, never is the answer, so b4 you go poking your noses into explosive political questions I suggest you do some research into the real world.

firstly, your question IS valid, and i don't think you should be vilified for asking it. What the Argentinian government is saying is what the electorate want to hear. They are, after all, politicians. And Viceversa on the british stance. What will dictate this whole project is money, plain and simple. Argentina will have many engineers and scientists working on this project, employed by global companies. I don't think the Argentinian government would be so foolish as to use the dispute as a distraction from their economic woes as that is exactly what they tried the last time, and we all know how that ended up!

Yes, This could really help Argentina's economy if both nations could come to an agreement that would benefit both countries equally. It's a shame, but it seems warring leaders seem to be more popular with it's people, especially if the vast majority of them are gullible to propaganda. Look at the blunder Bush made by invading Iraq, but many still regard him as one kick butt president that doesn't take any crap. Even though this mistake cost thousands of lives and billions of dollars, and will continue to take lives and a billion dollars a week for the next ten years.
