Abstract

Since the return to democracy in Argentina, foreign policy in connection with Malvinas has been one of the most important issues to be analyzed in order to determine the way our country presents itself to the world at large. As a result, it is necessary to look into the strategies employed by Mauricio Macri since he entered office in December 2015. Based on the fact that the previous administration “pulled away from the world” and taking into consideration that the aim of “Cambiemos” is to re-activate the economy by attracting in- vestments from developed western countries, the hypothesis formulated in this article poses that Macri’s foreign policy as regards Malvinas resembles, to a certain extent, Presi- dent Menem’s foreign policy in the 1990, which was determined by the legal-political formula named “sovereignty umbrella” (HERRERO, 2013: 59).
