The Falklands War and the Cold War


Guardian: Reports that the Reagan Administration was worried that Lady Thatcher was not giving diplomacy a chance in the Falklands War and that the USSR would be drawn in to the War. What is interesting is the fact that the our OWN Foreign Office was in surrender mode from the start and that was seen by Lady Thatcher, thus she got her advice from the Minister of Defence. The article shows that while the Reagan Administration was worried, when push came to shove it backed Lady Thatcher, some of that backing is still secret.
