London urges FIFA to investigate Argentine players over Falkland Islands comments

A report stated that former British Prime Minister Keir Starmer supports an investigation by FIFA into the banner raised by Argentine national team players after their victory over England in the World Cup. The banner explicitly stated that the Falkland Islands, known as "Las Malvinas" in Argentina, are territories with Argentine sovereignty. Starmer expressed his support for opening an investigation, reaffirming that the right to self-determination belongs to the islanders and that the UK's position remains firm that the Falkland Islands are British. Additionally, the British Secretary of State for Business criticized the banner, deeming it a violation of the rules against political activity in football, and emphasized that such matters fall under FIFA's jurisdiction.
