That this House notes that this year marks the 25th anniversary of the Falkland Islands conflict; recalls the enormous sacrifices made by Her Majesty's armed forces in heroically liberating the Islands and securing the unconditional surrender of the Argentine forces who illegally invaded the Islands on 2nd April 1982; remains resolutely dedicated to strengthening the historic ties between Britain and the Falkland Islands; reaffirms the continued support of the United Kingdom in maintaining the Islands as a self-governing British Overseas Territory; and looks forward to many more years of the Union Flag flying high above Port Stanley.
