Hehehe,,chagos is a territory of uk????completely false,,,its a mauritian territory, not uk,,,
The US needs to get out of the UN. And the UN needs to get out of the US.
You mean you (the UK and the US) want to continue colonising? Rules and laws are for other countries only? Blatant and disgusting " blind spots" and double standards yet again
Thank You Senator.
The UN needs to be disbanded.
Why is Senator Kennedy involving China?
Mr Kennedy ,get your facts right before you give this type of speech. Misleading people with rubbish talk.
Living in a superpower with the brain of a snail.
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN TRUMP CADILLAC PONTIAC DODGE sylvesterSTALLONE
YEEEAH
this chap is the nephew of JFK the youngsters from CHAGOS WENT TO UK as migrants but the old ones who was the inhabitants were just forced to like animals by the UK governers and administrators they commented secrets infos were disclosed '' like few Goodman Fridays THAT'S RACISM TO ITS PUREST LEVEL AT THAT TIME 70'S that's what this grand nephew of the one's great JFK is distillating in your ears. THIS CHAP SHOULD BE IN A RETIREMENT HOME NOT A SENATOR
Stop your chatter… keep your base… just pay Mauritius instead of UK…
I AM A CITIZEN OF MAURITIUS.. WHAT NONSENSE ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT… DIEGO GARCIA BELONGS TO US AND WTF ARE YOU PEOPLE DOING ON OUR ISLAND???🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺
Diego Garcia is not owned by the UK, but belongs to Mauritius. You are telling lies. Do your homework and get your information straight.
Journalists must contact both Misley Mandarin and Olivier Bancoult who are both from Chagos islands respectively fighting for the rights of their people. While the former is happy to have been "relodged" in the UK among other Chagossian people, the latter is still fighting for the ones who preferred to stay in Mauritius. The Uk has offered as a solution to offer citizenship to the Chagossian people but not all of them want to settle in UK as they are islanders first and foremost and also because the standard of living is very very high in UK for people who have not done a high education.
The UK and the Us: we are no more at the time where you could cast a culture aside and take their lands and the remaining ones can hardly adapt to your culture.
What about India who has military presence in the Indian Ocean on the island of Agalega also belonging to Mauritius? Its not only China who seek to have a presence in the Indian Ocean, every countries want the same right.
Yes indeed Mauritius have some islands in the Indian Ocean and we have been working hard to keep our economy afloat and that of the surrounding islands. We are a multicultural nation where we fight for the right or each living being on our islands. Regardless of race, religion and gender. And by EACH LIVING BEING: its human and non human.
Please tell Mr Trump to keep the level of pedo-criminality at bay within his country and in Europe where women and child abuse on phonographic platforms should be BANNED. The number of children disappearing worldwide is an important cause that no politicians would want to debate so far? Why is it about war, war, war and military?
Pay rent to Mru. That's all.
Wow, he's either lying or ignorant. The people of the Chagos speak Creole, share the same culture as Mauritians, and used to travel to Mauritius for health care. Look for the documentary “Stealing a nation”.
Chagos Islands ARE for Mauritius.
This guy lacks education about the islands, Chagos and Mauritius people speak the same Creole and understand each other perfectly. This guy just said the opposite
Be a gentleman and pay your rent. Show your American values.
You owe us a lot, pay your rent
Uk took chagos forcefully and the uk recognise it… Plzz return back to mauritius stop hiding behind security in indian ocean
Mr Kennedy is talking a lot but it seems that he doesn't know much about what he's talkiing about. Chagos belongs to Mauritius and the people of chagos Island and mauritius share the same culture and language too.
UK leased property which belongs to Mauritius to US! Grateful if you could get your facts right.
Under navin ramgoolam them Diego partially. Ppl lived ingeto year 2000
Mauritius did care for Diego ppl
Soveentry
Diego garvis citizens deserve uk passport
I am a Mauritian. This is our land which you took an built your base you moron. The case went to the international criminal court which recognised that the land belongs to Mauritius.As per the latest agreement we even gave you the Diego Garcia island for another 99 years on lease . Why are you spreading lies and fears.
Sir pls it is more than apparent that you need some history lesson.and next time please do not dare to talk on things you are not fully aware of.
Settle your score with China without trying to pull Mauritius in your approximate equations.Mauritius has won its case of sovereingty at the ICJ and by no backdoor means.
So sorry to say but just shut up
Don't forget it's belong to Mauritius not United Kingdom
So many bots defending these islands that there is more here in the comments than in the fk islands
America must keep this base it is not for question
This man is not talking facts at all. The island belongs to Mauritius and all government which has come in power in Mauritius has agreed that the US military base will stay but we want our archipelago back which means rents being paid to Mauritius instead of the UK for the Diego Garcia island and all other islands back for native to settle back.
You must pay a Rent to Mauritius not to England. What if China implement in Madagascar and what will you do to protect the Indian Ocean region against them. Let me tell you that the part you are showing on the map is for Mauritius and the USA have never conquerd any country or islands because most of the peoples came from Great Britain and Europe Mr Senator.
Return what is ours
