Andy Burnham warns Donald Trump on 'coercive' behaviour by Argentina in Falkland Islands

Andy Burnham has warned Donald Trump over Argentina's "coercive" behaviour in the Falkland Islands during a phone call between the two leaders on Friday.

Downing Street confirmed the pair discussed the Sea Lion project in the South Atlantic, alongside Ukraine, energy and the ongoing conflict in the Middle East during the talks.

A spokesman said Mr Burnham "raised the economic consequences of Argentina’s coercive measures" on both Britain and the United States to his American counterpart.
