In this spirit, and considering the country's historic claim against the United Nations for its sovereignty over this archipelago, veteran Osvaldo Hillar found the perfect legal suspension for the registry civil society may report it as follows: Argentine citizen domiciled in the Falkland Islands.

M & # 39; s caught"said the ex-fighter, who acknowledged that he would move to Puerto Argentino if the story had been different.

"I would go back to Malvinas, but I think that there are things that need to be organized through dialogue. I am against the loss of human lives: they are suffering families, they are suffering for generations to come, "said Hillar, although he currently rejects the idea of ​​visiting the archipelago as a tourist.

"I refuse to enter with a pbadport. It is to erase from the elbow what I wrote by hand many years agobut I am respectful of people who have left, "he said.

Hillar will vote this Sunday in Tierra de Fuego as an Argentine citizen living in the Falklands. Like him there are three other compatriotsincluding a woman married to an inhabitant of the islands. The other two would be neighbors of the province of Buenos Aires, as the veteran explained.

"I would be the only person at the registration level at which a National Register of Voters has awarded a table here." The school calls Entre Ríos and is located in front of Lake Escondido. you have to cross the entire mountain range, but I will go as a warrant"he accepted.

"I take it as a very important precedent electoral justice calls the Falkland Islands as a district and he gave me a table for me as a citizen of the Malvinas, near Tolhuin, "he said about the city located 103 km from Ushuaia and several other Puerto Argentino.
