I wouldn’t call the Falkland Islands War 2: Electric Boogaloo “WW3”. More like a police action, to be honest. The Argentine Navy and Air Force these days is frankly laughable in comparison to their military strength before the first FI war, let alone the strength of the RN and RAF today.
At the moment the patrol is a single River class whose largest armament is a 30mm cannon. In the past there tended to be either a frigate or a destroyer in the area, but while the Argentine navy is much diminished they can probably overpower or outmanoeuvre that defence.
Oh so THIS is how ww3 starts

Who knows, maybe some friends will lend a nuke or two
Not gonna happen
It’d be kinda funny if Putin gave them a “nuke” only for it to be a dud because of lack of maintenance
Why on earth would nukes be given over some islands with a population of only a few thousand?
It’s a question of principle
No, it’s just nonsense.
Argentina wouldn’t last a day against a modern military.
They’d last a day against the Royal Navy because it would take longer than a day to get there.
Oh, I’d expect a British ship or two to hang out very near the Falklands for as long as he’s in power.
