US favors supplying Argentina with vintage F16s to counter Chinese influence and despite UK's objection

Lol, when did the Chinese become a threat to South Americans unless you think exactly as your American daddy that thinks SA is exlusively US backyard.
For Argentina this is strictly a matter of money and has nothing to do with considering SA the backyard of EEUU. The U.S. has been trying to limit China's presence in South America for quite some time. But in the case of Argentina, the US has how to effectively pressure and this is not because we consider ourselves its "backyard". They can put pressure on us because we owe a lot of money to them, to the IMF and to the whole world.

O bhai mujhay kyu beech may la rahay ho, hain...

Waisay bhee - Amrika khood F-Shola uun ko nahe offer kar raha.

Uun haram-zadou nay Danish F-16's ka NOC dai deya hai, par ab wo (Denmark) bhee pechay hut gaey - due to Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Plus, the newly elected President of Argentina does not think the purchase of any Fighter Jets is top most priority.

I don't see Argentina making any Defence purchase any time soon.
Argentina does not have a newly elected President. we wil pick up a new one on october or november this year. In domestica press, Alberto Fernandez has explained the process to choose a new fighter still goes one and it is not cancelled.
We don t know if the nwe elected president will continue with the adquisition process or not.

US will end up controlling the supply line for the f16s, what’s stopping them from cutting it if they get into a conflict with UK. It’s a poison pill.

US sticking hard and fast to the Monroe Doctrine. It will never allow a Chinese weapons system (in this case potentially strategic) to ingress into the Americas.
