With the Malvinas happens the exact same thing as it happens with Gibraltar, Bermuda, and other British Overseas Territories: they act as remnants of a colonial past that serve as outposts from which to project British interests throughout the world. In other words, the problem is not that the Malvinas Islands are not under Argentinian control as much as that they are under British control.
