Argentina–United Kingdom relations

British–Argentine relations

United Kingdom	Argentina

Argentine–United Kingdom relations refers to foreign relations between Argentina and the United Kingdom.

Both countries established diplomatic relations on December 15, 1823. Diplomatic relations were cut off before the Falklands War in 1982 and were reinstated in 1990. Post-war relations between the two countries improved significantly up until the mid-2000s. During the government of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, relations became increasingly tense, with both countries reasserting their claims to the Falkland Islands. In 2016, British Prime Minister David Cameron and Argentine President Mauricio Macri held a meeting where they agreed to begin a new stage of dialogue and friendship between the two countries and reaffirming the strong relationship the two countries have historically.

Today it is estimated that Argentina is home to the largest British community in Latin America, where it is reflected in the strong British influence in sports, education and customs.

Argentina has an embassy in London and the United Kingdom has an embassy in Buenos Aires. The current British Ambassador to Argentina is John Freeman and current Argentine Ambassador to the United Kingdom is Renato Carlos Sersale di Cerisano.

Both states are members of the G-20.
