Rockhopper shares plunge 20% on Malvinas project setbacks, Argentine pressure

Rockhopper Exploration's shares fell nearly 20% on the London Stock Exchange after confirming the exit of two suppliers and ongoing pressure from the Argentine government over its project in the Malvinas/Falkland Islands. The stock has lost over 30% in the past month, reflecting heightened political and operational risk. The development signals deteriorating investor confidence in the project's viability amid sovereignty-related tensions.
