Donald Trump today accused Sir Keir Starmer of ‘giving away’ Diego Garcia to Mauritius ‘for no reason whatsoever’ in an ‘act of great stupidity’ that he believes justifies his demand to seize Greenland.
The US President said that ‘there is no doubt that China and Russia have noticed this act of total weakness’ by Britain in the Chagos Islands.
He used his anger over Diego Garcia to justify yet again why America should be handed Greenland, urging Denmark and his European allies to ‘do the right thing’.
Diego Garcia, the largest of the Chagos Islands – a small archipelago in the Indian Ocean – is home to a strategically important military base jointly used by the US and the UK.
Britain has paid Mauritius to lease back Diego Garcia and the base for at least 99 years under the terms of the deal.
