Argentina seeks halt to oil drilling near Falklands at Hamburg tribunal

Argentina filed a case with the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) in Hamburg, demanding a suspension of the British "Sea Lion" oil drilling project on the Falkland Sea. Argentine lawyers argue that British approval of the project has dramatically deepened the sovereignty dispute over the islands, which led to war 40 years ago. Britain and Argentina stand on opposite sides of the long-running Falklands dispute, which the oil project has reignited.
