A non-bindingreferendum on resolving the Beagle conflict was held in Argentina on 25 November 1984.[1] Voters were asked whether they approved of the government's negotiated settlement with Chile,[2] which would result in Argentina recognising the Picton, Lennox and Nueva as being Chilean territory. It was approved by 82.6% of voters, with a turnout of 72.4%.
Despite the overwhelming support from voters, the Argentine National Congress only approved the treaty on 14 March 1985 by a vote of 23–22, with one abstention.[3]
