After asserting he will take over Greenland, US President Donald Trump has triggered a fresh dispute with another NATO ally, the UK, over the Chagos Islands in the Indian Ocean.
Trump accused Britain of “great stupidity” for signing a deal with Mauritius to hand over sovereignty of the Chagos Islands, the UK’s last remaining territory in Africa. However, the agreement allows the UK to retain access to Diego Garcia, home to a strategic joint US-UK military base, through a 99-year lease, reportedly costing Britain around $136 million annually.
While Washington had earlier welcomed the agreement, Trump now claims Russia and China see the move as “total weakness”. The UK says the deal will proceed, while Mauritius has stated the issue is no longer up for debate.
