Meanwhile the US/UK handed over the Indian Ocean
EXCLUSIVE: The UK/US diplomatic deal that gives China strategic foothold in Indian Ocean - yet NO ONE is talking about it. Agreement to hand archipelago over to Beijing-friendly Mauritius will land China in backyard of top US military base Diego Garcia
The U.K. is negotiating with Mauritius about handing over the Chagos Islands
The archipelago includes Diego Garcia, location of a key U.S. naval facility
It has been involved in everything from Iranian hostage rescue efforts to air operations against targets in Iraq and Afghanistan
The U.K. says it will ensure U.S. operations at the base can continue
But U.K. and U.S. lawmakers say any change in sovereignty risks letting in China
They ask: What is to stop a Chinese base being build on another island close by?
China has deepened ties with Mauritius after signing a free trade agreement
Republican Rep. Michael Waltz said he wanted to see a congressional review
December 2, 2022
The Chagos Islands may be little more than specks in the middle of the Indian Ocean, but they are at the center of a looming diplomatic row over a key American military base and the rise of Chinese power.
Lawmakers on both sides of the Atlantic have raised fears that the British government's decision to begin negotiations to hand over the islands to Mauritius could allow China the chance to build its own military facility on the archipelago - right under the nose of American forces at Diego Garcia.
The issue is one of the most important strategic locations in the Indian Ocean, from where U.S. B1 and B52 bombers can reach maritime chokepoints, vital sea lanes and even potential Chinese bases everywhere from Djibouti to Pakistan.
The British government says any deal will protect the U.S. operation at Diego Garcia.
But British MP Daniel Kawczynski is warning his American counterparts that handing sovereignty to Mauritius - with its deepening economic ties to Beijing - offers no guarantee that China won't soon have its own base on the island chain.
'If you look at the amount of investment the Chinese have in Mauritius, I would argue that for all intents and purposes they control Mauritius,' he told DailyMail.com.
'They have a policy of hoovering up all of these islands in the South China Sea… the idea the Chinese are not going to take advantage of us giving up these islands is wrong.'
He said he was writing to American colleagues to sound the alarm, and has called a debate at parliament's Westminster Hall next week.
Rep. Mike Waltz, ranking Republican on the House Armed Services Subcommittee on Readiness, demanded an immediate review.
'Since the Biden Administration gave away Bagram - a strategic airbase only a few hundred miles from the Chinese border and our only base situated between Iran, Russia, and China - the base in Diego Garcia is absolutely critical,' he said.
'These reports are very concerning and something the readiness subcommittee should look into.'

EU's Juncker celebrates Marxist totalitarianism
The ideology Marx gave rise to killed tens of millions of innocents. Jean-Claude Juncker, President of the European Commission, illustrates his own moral blindness and the bankruptcy of the EU itself as he celebrates the 200th anniversary of the birth of Karl Marx. Thank goodness Britain will soon be rid of this awful institution
The evil ideology known as communism left a track record of unimaginable horror. Experts estimate that 100 million people were killed
Some were murdered. Other starved to death because of the pervasive economic failure of communism.
Yet there are dupes and apologists who overlook all this death and misery.
One of them is Jean-Claude Juncker, the President of the European Commission. A few days from now, this über-bureaucrat will help celebrate the 200th birthday of Karl Marx.
"The European Commission President will travel to Trier, Germany, where he will give a speech to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Marx's birth. ...The Commission President will give a speech at the opening ceremony of the Karl Marx exhibition in the city. ...The chief eurocrat's trip has received critics, who have suggested the 63-year-old forgetting how Marx's "warped ideology" led to millions of deaths across the world. Ukip MEP and the party's former leader Paul Nuttall said: "It is appalling that Jean-Claude Juncker feels it necessary to commemorate a man whose ideology - Marxism/Communism - led to more than 100 million deaths.
"...Conservative MP Daniel Kawczynski..., who as a seven-year-old boy fled to Britain with his family from the Communist regime in Poland, said Mr Juncker should reject any invitations to commemorate the event. He said: "I think it's in very poor taste we have to remember that Marxism was all about ripping power and individual means away from people and giving to State. "Marxism led to the killing of millions around the world as it allowed a small band of fanatics to suppress the people we must learn the lessons from this and share with our children."'
How disgusting. And let's not forget that communism is still claiming victims in places such as Cuba and North Korea.
Here's the part of the story that caused my jaw to drop.
"A commission spokeswoman defending Mr Juncker's visit... She said: ..."I think that nobody can deny that Karl Marx is a figure who shaped history in one way or the other."
In that case, why not celebrate Hitler's birthday as well?

Any attempts by Remainer MPs to delay or obstruct #Brexit must be opposed. Today I have formally asked Polish Government to veto any motions by EU to allow extension of Article 50. We are leaving 11pm on March 29th as promised

Boris Johnson 'Chose to Sign up for Brexit in Name Only,' Commentator Says
Conservative MP Daniel Kawczynski has urged Britain's Prime Minister not to cave into EU demands over the UK's fishing rights. The comments from Kawczynski follow reports from Brussels which suggested that the EU was anticipating the UK to surrender its fishing waters to ensure that Britain would no longer be subject to any of the EU's regulations.
With more on this story, Sputnik spoke to the political commentator Brian Silvester, in this interview.
Sputnik: With the UK being pressured into giving up its fishing rights... What effect would this have on Brexit?
Brian Silvester: Well, I'm very surprised to hear that this Tory MP has said that because he or she knows full well that Boris has signed us up to Brexit in name only. That's what he agreed to last October and that is what was voted through in January by the new House of Commons.
Boris signed that international treaty in January and so he has signed us up to Brexit in name only, which means that the European Union will still have control over us, now that I find that extremely sad indeed and Boris has let down totally the 17.4 million who voted for Brexit.
He said he was going to get Brexit done and he has done the opposite.
