who was president of argentina during the falklands war
Leopoldo Galtieri Leopoldo Fortunato Galtieri Castelli (Spanish pronunciation: [leoˈpoldo foɾtuˈnato ɣalˈtjeɾi kasˈteʎi]; 15 July 1926 – 12 January 2003) was an Argentine general and President of Argentina from 22 December 1981 to 18 June 1982, during the last military dictatorship[2] (known officially as the National Reorganization Process). The death squad, 601 Intelligence Battalion, directly reported to him.[3] He was removed from power soon after the British re-took the Falkland Islands, whose invasion and occupation he had ordered.
Boundary Treaty of 1881 between Chile and Argentina The Boundary Treaty of 1881 (Spanish: Tratado de Límites de 1881) between Argentina and Chile was signed on the 23 July 1881 in Buenos Aires by Bernardo de Irigoyen, on the part of Argentina, and Francisco de Borja Echeverría, on the part of Chile, with the aim to establish a precise and exact borderline between the two countries based on the uti possidetis juris principle. Despite dividing largely unexplored lands this treaty laid the groundwork for nearly all of Chile's and Argentina's current 5600 km[1] of shared borders.
