Argentina Hoping Pope Will Intervene Over Falklands
Francis I hasn't even been Pope for a week, and is still awaiting his coronation.
However, he is already been asked to intervene in international politics.
Argentinian President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner met with him on Monday.
During their meeting she asked the Pope to intervene in Argentina's claims to the Falkland Islands.
For some time Argentina has pressured the Islands to given up their British rights and join Argentina.
Last week, Falklanders voted, nearly unanimously to stay British, making it harder for Argentina to push their claims.
Before becoming pope, Francis had repeatedly stated that the islands were Argentinian territory, not British.
It is unclear if he will continue his nationalist tendencies, now that he is Pope, or if he will maintain the Vatican's neutrality, on the matter.
