It is no secret that we have long hoped for a more mature bilateral relationship with whomever succeeded the Kirchner administration.

There are undoubted economic benefits for both of our countries, if President Macri can help Argentina to overcome years of mismanagement.

But let me assure this House that our position on the Falklands will not change.
