Tugendhat Challenges Chagos Islands Handover: 'No Connection' to Mauritius

The Chagos Islands handover to Mauritius has sparked debate. Tom Tugendhat, a prominent figure, questions the decision, emphasizing the islands' geographical distance from Mauritius. 'They're 1,300 miles away,' Tugendhat stated, highlighting the islands' closer proximity to the Seychelles. His argument centers on the lack of a practical connection between the islands and Mauritius, contrasting with their historical ties to the British administration. The video uses maps to illustrate the distances, making the argument visually clear. The debate continues, raising questions about the long-term implications of the handover.
