Mauritius breaks diplomatic relations after Maldives challenges UK-Chagos deal

Mauritius' Cabinet resolved to terminate all diplomatic relations with the Maldives with immediate effect after the Maldives formally objected to the UK-Mauritius agreement on the sovereignty of the Chagos Archipelago. The Maldives submitted written representations to the UK rejecting the handover, and President Dr Mohamed Muizzu says the Maldives holds a superior claim to the islands.
