"NAVATT STATES ARGENTINE NAVY THINKING OF PREFERENTIAL JURISDICTION OUT TO 200 MILES (AS IN PERU, ECUADOR, CHILE) RATHER THAN EPICONTINENTAL SEA. 200 MILE LIMIT DOES NOT RPT NOT REACH FALKLANDS. ARGENTINE NAVY OFF TOLD NAVATT "200 MILE LIMIT SOON WILL BE STANDARD THROUGH HEMISPHERE"
Just found this on Wikileaks regarding a unilateral move by Argentina to extend their t-erritorial waters. It must be a hard job for American diplomats trying to couch their la-nguage in such unambiguous terms that it can't be used as an excuse to start a war. Ev-en funnier the author does the 'NOT RPT NOT' thing about four times throughout the dispatch to add emphasis. He should be commended for his clarity and lack of imagin-ation ;)
