  "summary": "Argentine President Javier Milei has criticised the United Nations, calling it \"useless\" for not taking action on the Falklands dispute. According to the South China Morning Post, Milei made the comments while addressing the UN General Assembly in New York, where he reaffirmed Argentina's claim to sovereignty over the islands, known to Argentines as the Malvinas.\n\nMilei described the Malvinas issue as a \"national cause\" and urged the parties to find a \"peaceful solution\". He accused the UN of failing to enforce international resolutions that call for the parties to refrain from making unilateral changes while the dispute remains unresolved.\n\nThe dispute over the Falkland Islands has been ongoing, with Argentina seeking sovereignty over the islands, which are currently under British control. Milei's comments come amid growing tensions with London over the issue.",
