Jonathan Powell, the UK’s freshly minted National Security Adviser, has popped up in Mauritius. And why? To discuss surrendering the Chagos Islands. But here’s the kicker—this is all happening before Trump’s inauguration.
Let’s pause for a moment. If we’re so eager to cut deals and hand over territories to Mauritius while trying to beat the clock on a new U.S. administration, how do we expect America to see us as a trusted ally? It’s not just about the islands; it’s about the message this sends.
Does this look like loyalty, or does it look like scrambling? If we’re rushing decisions without keeping the bigger picture in mind, especially regarding one of our closest allies, aren’t we risking our standing on the global stage?
Let’s hear your thoughts—because this one feels like a big move in the wrong direction.
