UK finalising Chagos deal with Mauritius, says No 10

The UK government is working with Mauritius to finalise a deal on the future of the Chagos Islands, Downing Street has said.
Under the proposed agreement, Mauritius would gain sovereignty of the islands from the UK, but allow the US and UK to continue operating a military base on one of the islands for an initial period of 99 years, at a cost to the British taxpayer.
UK government sources have indicated they are not waiting for further sign-off from Donald Trump.
Earlier this year, Foreign Secretary David Lammy said the deal would not go ahead if the US president had objections.
In a statement, the Mauritian government reiterated Downing Street’s comments, saying that both countries were “currently working to finalise this agreement”.
