UK and Mauritius near deal on Chagos Islands, with UK leasing key military base amid criticism.
The UK and Mauritius have made significant progress in negotiations over the Chagos Islands, aiming to finalize a deal before the U.S. presidential inauguration.
The talks focus on transferring sovereignty to Mauritius while Britain leases the strategically important Diego Garcia military base for 99 years.
The deal faces criticism from the U.S. and some UK politicians who worry it could compromise security and cost billions.
The Financial Times estimates the lease could cost around £90 million annually.
