Britain still has a colony in Africa that it controls along with the U.S., and refuses to give up despite national and international court orders. This is the story of Diego Garcia, whose inhabitants were forcibly expelled by modern-day imperialists. The Pentagon calls it “an indispensable platform for policing the world.” So they just go ahead and occupy land that belongs to Mauritius. These are the so-called keepers of the global rules-based order. #ChagosIslands #DiegoGarcia #Colonialism #Mauritius

@palkisu It’s not really Africa. It is British Indian Ocean territory
@palkisu UK and US are the biggest criminals of the world. They should be dragged to courts by the whole world.
Great power game...Having the US in Diego Garcia is in India's interest to counter China in IOR...Yes, it is wrong and immoral, but guess what it happens all the time and will continue...I am a realist and India's national security is becoming realist too...@narendramodi @AmitShah @DrSJaishankar @rajnathsingh @JakeSullivan46
@palkisu Also recently in Raisina Dialogue Mauritius Foreign minister spoke of this with regard to "Rule of Law" and "Territorial integrity"
@palkisu Papki - enjoy your Work. Now, call all your people abroad Home. No one appreciates Occupiers.
@palkisu Afternoon Madam Palki. Am sure my fellow country people will appreciate if you could relate their story on a wider reach platform. Enough is never enough. Thank you
Some geography experts are saying that Diego Garcia is not in Africa 😂 The island of Diego Garcia is part of the Chagos Archipelago. The Chagos Archipelago has been recognized by the International Court of Justice as part of Mauritius, which is considered a part of Africa. Therefore, Diego Garcia is also in Africa.
