British Indian Ocean Territory: Sovereignty

How can the Minister continue to defend the ceding of the Chagos islands to Mauritius when China is rapidly expanding its influence in the Indo-Pacific? With no binding agreement against Chinese military involvement in the future, have the Government recklessly compromised British and allied security just to appease vested interests?

Policy Exchange

The defence facilities in the British Indian Ocean Territory help to protect people in Britain and around the world from terrorist threats, organised crime and piracy. We reiterate our long-standing commitment to cede sovereignty when we no longer need the territory to help keep us and others safe.

Should the UK cede control of the Chagos Islands?

This paper makes the urgent case for the Government not to cede control of the Chagos Islands. In November 2022, the Foreign Secretary announced that the UK was entering into negotiations with Mauritius about the exercise of sovereignty over the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT), one of the United Kingdom’s fourteen overseas territories.

What if Mauritius has sovereignty over the British Indian Ocean territory?

Does the British Indian Ocean territory have a military base on Diego Garcia?

However, since its creation, the British Indian Ocean Territory and the joint UK-US military base on Diego Garcia has had a contested existence. It has been challenged through various international courts and tribunals, threatening the long-term, secure operation of the base. In recent years, this threat had risen significantly.

Why did the Chagossians leave the Indian Ocean?

Chagossians were forced to leave the central Indian Ocean territory by 1973 to make way for the military base. The expulsions are regarded as one of the most shameful parts of Britain’s modern colonial history and Chagossians have spent decades fighting to return to the islands.

Should the UK revert to a cross-party position on the Chagos Islands?

With the return of great power competition, and an increasingly aggressive Chinese regime active throughout the region, the BIOT is of fundamental importance to UK security and foreign policy. Its authors argue that the Government should revert to the longstanding, cross-party position that the UK enjoys sovereignty over the Chagos Islands.
