India played a quiet yet significant contribution in the historic transfer of the sovereignty of the Chagos Islands from the United Kingdom to Mauritius. According to ANI sources, India had steadfastly and unwaveringly advocated for "the need to do away with the last vestiges of colonisation" during the negotiations.


The joint statement released by UK and Mauritius also acknowledged New Delhi's involvement in the matter. The statement specifically mentioned, "In reaching today's political agreement, we have enjoyed the full support and assistance of our close partners, the United States of America and the Republic of India."

Rather than fume we should take a page out of their book to learn how countries exact penalties from others.

Following the renegotiation of the Chagos Islands sovereignty issue, where the UK head to cede to Mauritius, those guys are slowly raising the ante on the Indian and Mauritian naval listening post deal.

Today BBC carries an article- Is this tiny Mauritian island a confidential spy station?- click bait headline and massive rona- dhona on why India baad. Draws an equivalence to Chagos Islands.

This alone would not have mattered for mebut the fact that yesterday I came across a strange article on reddit- India showing to corruption in Mauritius and why there President's wife is anti India with suppressed leaked audio tapes.

Lessons:
1. If you want to play with the big bits you need to punish anyone who interferes
2. You need to build a wide set of media options to malign.
3. Build Human Rights bodies which are ostensibly independent and can be denied as under government control to create trouble.

Forecast:
Over the coming months we will see protests against the Indian base loomed by the usual human rights orgs.

I find it even stranger that there has been no movement in the UN General Assembly to debate and vote on the same. It would be extremely interesting to see who votes how with the knowledge of recent anti Russian votes and attempts to portray such votes as the voice of the International Community. If such motions were carried to the Security Council then even more interested to who uses a Veto.

Time has come for reparations dialogue, Commonwealth heads agree
