§ Mr. Oakesasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he will make a statement on Anglo-Argentinian relations.
§ Mr. Goronwy Roberts:Britain and Argentina have had a long and friendly association in many fields. Our relations are cordial and Her Majesty's Government are anxious that they should remain so. I very much hope that a satisfactory solution will soon be found to the problems which the recent epidemic of foot and mouth disease in the United Kingdom has caused for both our countries. In accordance with Resolution 2065 (XX) of the General Assembly of the United Nations, we are also holding a series of talks with representatives of the Argen 406W tine Government with the purpose of finding a solution to the question of the Falkland Islands.
