Why Is Mauritius Demanding £800 Million A Year And Billions In Reparations From UK
The UK-Mauritius negotiations over the Chagos Islands have reached an impasse, with Mauritius escalating its demands to unprecedented levels.
Navinchandra Ramgoolam, Mauritius’s newly elected prime minister, has signaled dissatisfaction with the terms agreed upon by his predecessor. Following a conversation with outgoing US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Ramgoolam informed his parliament: “I made him understand that we do not agree with certain things contained in the agreement concluded on October 3 by the former Mauritian prime minister and informed him that we have made a counter-proposal which will be transmitted to him.”
Or Mauritius could give the Chagos Islands back to the Chagossians instead of trying to profit off of stealing their land.
