What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Argentina used Interpol to request arrests of individuals involved in a large oil project off the Falkland Islands. Britain appealed to Interpol to reject these requests, arguing that the 'red notice' demands are politically motivated. The oil project, known as Sea Lion, is located in the north Falklands basin and has the potential to triple the Falklands' GDP. Argentina's strategy includes attempts to criminalize those involved in the project and deter other investors.
