CRITICISM 
 
REF: BUENOS AIRES 00603 
 
1.  (SBU) Summary: President Kirchner was prominent by his absence 
at the major commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the 
Falklands/Malvinas war in Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego.  Vice President 
Scioli led the ceremony in Ushaia, calling for renewed negotiations 
with the UK over the sovereignty dispute and reiterating Argentina's 
claims to the islands.  Local press reports blame a planned 
demonstration by striking public employees and teachers from Tierra 
del Fuego and Santa Cruz provinces for Kirchner's absence.  Whatever 
the reason for Kirchner's absence, his decision not to attend the 
commemoration opened him to criticism from war veterans and the 
opposition.  End summary. 
 
------------------ 
KIRCHNER A NO SHOW 
------------------ 
 
2.  (U) Kirchner was conspicuously absent from the principle 
official commemoration ceremony marking the 25th anniversary of the 
Falklands/Malvinas war in Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego despite Defense 
Minister Nilda Garre's earlier announcement that he would be 
present.  Local press reports blame a planned demonstration by 
striking public employees and teachers from Tierra del Fuego and 
Santa Cruz provinces for Kirchner's absence.  Official sources place 
the blame on Garre, stating that the President had not changed his 
earlier decision not to attend. 
 
3.  (U) Veterans of the war and opposition parties seized the 
opportunity to openly criticize Kirchner for not attending any 
public ceremony commemorating the war as well as the decision not to 
broadcast the ceremony on the state-owned television channel. 
National newspaper, La Nacion, published a poll which showed almost 
91% of those questioned disapproved of Kirchner's absence from the 
ceremony. 
 
------------------------ 
"MALVINAS ARE ARGENTINE" 
------------------------ 
 
4.  (U) Vice President Scioli delivered the keynote address to a 
crowd of about 5,000, expressing the government's "heartfelt and 
deserved homage to those who fell and to those who were wounded or 
maimed fulfilling their duty."  He called on the UK to resume 
sovereignty negotiations pursuant to UN Resolution 2065 and stated 
that the Malvinas "are Argentine, they always were and they always 
will be."  Defense Minister Garre, Foreign Minister Jorge Taiana, 
and Interior Minister Anibal Fernandez also attended the ceremony. 
 
 
5.  (U) Taiana has repeatedly criticized the UK's continued 
resistance to resuming negotiations to resolve the dispute, denying 
appeals from not only the UN, but also from the OAS and other 
international forums.  He defended the GoA's decision not to 
participate in a bilateral commemoration of the war's end in June, 
contending that the UK was not planning a tasteful commemoration, 
but rather "a militaristic victory parade, a typical gesture of 
arrogance."  Taiana also belittled the UK for trying to take credit 
for efforts of family members of the victims of the war to travel to 
the islands to erect a memorial in their honor and for refusing to 
participate in bilateral confidence building measures. 
 
------- 
COMMENT 
------- 
 
6.  (SBU) It is a bit odd that a president who has consistently cast 
fuel on the nationalistic fires surrounding the Malvinas/Falklands 
issue would pass up the opportunity to simultaneously rail on two of 
his favorite themes: the perversity of the past military junta(in 
making its disastrous decision to take Argentina to war with 
England); and the arrogance of some powerful foreign interest bent 
on denying something to or taking something away from Argentina. 
Kirchner's absence has left analysts scratching their heads. 
Perhaps he was trying to avoid confrontation with public employees 
and teachers from Tierra del Fuego and Santa Cruz provinces, who 
were reportedly planning a small protest at the war's commemoration? 
 Whatever the reason, his decision not to attend the commemoration 
opened doors for criticism of a different sort from war veterans and 
opposition parties, who seized the opportunity to condemn his 
decision and call into question his commitment to the issue.
