UK forced to shelve legislation to return Chagos Islands to Mauritius

Officials accept that time has run out to pass law after US dropped its support for plan

The Guardian
@Miro_Collas the US currently relies upon the military base there to help do piracy on oil and natural gas tankers that pass through the strait of Hormuz into the Indian Ocean. This is their plan, they want to entirely choke off China to from any form of oil either Russian or Middle East or Venezuelan all at once and force them to buy US oil or natural gas and thus bring them back into the realm of Western control. In this geopolitical light, this story is about the intersection of decolonization and a potential global resource world war over a defacto but unstated oil embargo.
