Original Note:
There is no evidence the inhabitants of the islands wish to be citizens of Mauritius. The Chagos Islands are 1,300 miles from Mauritius and have never been part of that country. Nor has there been a vote, unlike BREXiT, to establish their will. https://policyexchange.org.uk/publication/sovereignty-and-security-in-the-indian-ocean/
