💨 Abstract

The UK will delay signing a deal to transfer sovereignty of the Chagos Islands, including the strategic Diego Garcia military base, to Mauritius until the Trump administration reviews it. The deal was announced in October, but has faced criticism from Trump's allies due to concerns over the military base. Downing Street stated that the deal will only be agreed upon if it is in the UK's best interests and protects national security.
