Yes, but the discussion was about similarities and differences between the UK's approach to the two overseas territories, and whether the populations want British protection. I suppose one could say that a point of similarity in both cases was that a situation where moving to live in the UK was very difficult changed to one where it is a near certainty for those who want to make the move. |
Falklanders want to remain British
Ukraine wantbto remain Ukrainians .

It was amended after the conflict. but prior to that, Maggie couldn't have given a toss about the islanders. Many Brits didn't even know where the Falklands was |
Is that why British troops were stationed on the Falklands before the conflict?
Fact Argentina is an ex colony of Spain and is largely inhabited by people of Spanish decent. The indigenous population of Argentina were virtually wiped out.
Fact the Falklands had no indigenous population the were uninhabited. The Falklands were never a Spanish colony.
On that basis, the UN decided, that neither Spain or Argentina had any territorial rights to the Falkland Islands.
Unlike Ukraine which the UN considers an independent country which is illegally being invaded by Russia. | |

Thatcher passed the act a year before the conflict. Fact!
I never stated the Falklands was Spanish or belonged to Argentina.
The Ukraine has not been invaded. There is a conflict in the Donbass and the reasons are many, much of which is above your understanding | | | |

And above your understanding is that Russia exported hardliners and GRU staff to the Donbass to create the conflict in the first place. The problems in the Donbass are of Russia's making for their geopolitical gain and their Oligarch's financial gain. |  |

No that was the US who replaced the legit pro Russian govt with an anti Russian puppet. Victoria Nuland has gone on record saying as such | | | |
