According to The Guardian:
Argentina has presented a formal note of protest to the UK ambassador over the naming of a large area of Antarctica as Queen Elizabeth Land.
The note handed over by the foreign ministry to John Freeman in Buenos Aires criticised the UK’s “anachronistic imperialist ambitions that hark back to ancient practices”.
The note expressed Argentina’s “firmest rejection of the recently announced pretension of the government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland of naming an area of the Argentine Antarctic sector”.
