UK Court Lifts Block on Deal to Hand Chagos Islands to Mauritius

ai generated text

The articles report on a high court decision to lift a temporary block on the cession of sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius. As a result, the British government is expected to sign a multibillion-dollar deal with Mauritius, under which the UK will cede control over the islands, but maintain a lease on the island of Diego Garcia for 99 years. The deal is seen as providing legal certainty for the continued operation of the US-UK military base on Diego Garcia. The UK Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, is set to attend a virtual event with the Mauritian government to finalize the agreement.

    1. The fight continues. We've been fighting more than 50 years … we will not, never, never let our island, a British Island, go to Mauritius.
