The Daily Mail reports that cruise ship with 450 passengers and 330 crew members was prevented from leaving a port of Buenos Aires.

According to the newspaper port workers wanted to stop Seabourn Sojourn from sailing to the Falkland Islands. After seven hours delay the Sojourn was allowed to sail away under one condition and that is that the captain needs to confirm that the ship will not sail to Falkland Islands.

Seabourn UK marketing director Carly Perkins told the Daily Mail: 'The ship has been able to resume its schedule. It was delayed but it has now left Buenos Aires.'

The spokesman for the United Maritime Workers Union (SOMU), Tony Lopez, which prevented the ship from leaving the port, said the ship would not be allowed to set sail until it had been confirmed it would not go to the archipelago, 300 miles off the coast of Argentina.

He said that the cruise ship is a 'pirate ship' and it would be violating the Gaucho Rivero law, designed to stop British ships from 'plundering' Argentine resources.
