UK, Argentina aim to 'strengthen relations' after election
Britain's David Cameron and Argentina's president-elect Mauricio Macri agreed to "strengthen relations" between their countries after a phone call Thursday, Downing Street said.
Britain and Argentina have long had tense ties due to their territorial dispute over the Falkland Islands, known in Spanish as Las Malvinas.
Macri, who was elected Sunday promising economic reforms and seeking foreign investment, says he wants "good relations with all countries".
Cameron's Downing Street office said he had called Macri to congratulate him.
