Many of the papers lead on a leaked Pentagon memo, originally reported by Reuters, which suggests the US has drawn up proposals to back Argentine sovereignty of the Falkland Islands. The Telegraph says the US review of their position is a means to “punish the UK for failing to support its war with Iran”, and notes it has been condemned by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, war veterans and residents of the islands. The paper adds that the memo outlined several options for “punishing reluctant allies”, including suspending “difficult” ones such as Spain from “prestigious” jobs.
