英国已向国际刑警组织总部（里昂）提出申请，要求其驳回阿根廷就福克兰群岛油气开发项目相关人员提出的逮捕请求，指控这些请求出于政治动机。1阿根廷总统米莱誓言阻止海狮油气项目的推进，已对以色列公司纳维塔斯和英国合作伙伴洛克霍珀勘探公司发起刑事诉讼，并向英国发出两周最后期限（至9月28日），要求停止该项目，否则面临法律诉讼。1这一期限已于10月14日周一到期，阿根廷媒体随后称仲裁申请将随之而来。1
海狮油气项目位于福克兰群岛北部盆地，具有重大经济潜力，有潜力使福克兰GDP增长三倍。1对此，英国官员表示，阿根廷对福克兰群岛的威胁强度已达到1982年战争以来未曾有过的水平。12013年的公投中，福克兰群岛3600名居民中的99.8%投票支持保持英国领土身份，仅有3票反对。1国际刑警组织已向英国回应，表示将尊重其章程第3条，禁止进行任何政治性干预或活动。1英国首相安迪·伯纳姆已向美国总统特朗普提及此事及岛民明确的英国属属性意愿。1
Britain has submitted a formal request to Interpol headquarters in Lyon asking the international police organization to reject arrest warrants sought by Argentina against individuals involved in the Sea Lion oil and gas project in the Falkland Islands, characterizing the requests as politically driven.1 The project, located in the North Falkland Basin, has the potential to triple the territory's gross domestic product.1
Argentina's President Javier Milei has launched criminal proceedings against the Israeli company Navitas and British partner Rockhopper Exploration Company, and previously issued a two-week ultimatum to the UK ending September 28 to halt the project or face legal action.1 That deadline expired on Monday, October 14, with Argentine media reporting that an arbitration claim under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea would follow.1 British officials have stated that the intensity of Argentina's threats toward the Falkland Islands represents a level not seen since the 1982 war.1
Interpol responded to Britain's concerns by confirming it would respect Article 3 of its constitution, which prohibits any form of political interference or activity.1 In a 2013 referendum, 99.8 percent of the Falkland Islands' 3,600 residents voted in favor of maintaining the territory's British status, with only three votes cast in opposition.1 British Prime Minister Andy Burnham has raised the matter with US President Donald Trump, emphasizing the islanders' clear preference for British sovereignty.1
