The response came after Mr Cameron told the Commons on Wednesday: “I would say this: as long as the Falkland Islands want to be sovereign British territory, they should remain sovereign British territory – full stop, end of story.”
Mrs Kirchner has insisted Argentina and Britain should negotiate over the South Atlantic islands, which the two countries fought a 10-week war over in 1982.

She branded Mr Cameron “arrogant” and said his remarks were an expression of “mediocrity and stupidity”.
