- India Backs Mauritius Bid to Reclaim "Stolen" Chagos Island | Flashback with Palki Sharma
India has backed efforts by Mauritius to reclaim the Chagos archipelago, which is illegally occupied by the UK and the US. The island is now home to a military base that the two Western powers are unwilling to give up. But how did they come to control this Mauritian land in the first place? Palki Sharma tells you how the US and the UK "stole" the islands on Flashback.

Watching from Mauritius 🇲🇺
Correction; Deago Garcia’ s population was not Christian, but they were forcibly converted to Christianity!
Yeah loads of people didn't know Christianity, colonizers sent in priests and pasters first to change island nation's way of life,they dumbed down people and took land ,cultures, languages, forced them to change totally to the colonizers from Europe and USA ofcourse english.
Infact. Christianity only reached Garcia AFTER THE BRITISH AND THE AMERIcans arrived
Like everywhere..
same with africans, native american, native Australians, native newzelanders like Maoris etc were forcefully converted, sadly most native didn't even survived colonisation :( Even a lot of europeans themselves were forced. After Chritianisation of France, Charlemagne, King of the Franks, forcibly converted the Saxons from their native Germanic paganism and then many crusaders fought against European pagans completely erasing their native culture like in From 1147, the Crusades were fought against pagan tribes in Northern Europe.
Diego Garcia had no native population until humans started sailing the seas so calm down
A fantastic history lesson in 10 minutes, well done Palki, I love your podcasts.
Flashback is one of the best program of the Firstpost, I eagerly wait for the new episode every week. Very educative..
Especially when Palki Sharma is the presenter... Palki rocks ! ... 👍
How many other islands has Britain claimed for itself without justification? Indonesia can name a few.
Indonesia is a case of continued colonisation by the Javanese, who simply took over where the Dutch left off. Indonesia consists of around 700 islands spread over a vast area, with diverse cultures, languages, religions and despite the national motto "unity in diversity", mayhem and murder ha accompanied this construction. Java and Madura now have more inhabitants than Russia!, and the overpopulation has led to populating other islands with these folks. With predictable results.

Thank you India. Everyone knows that Mauritians are still under occupation. Many natives are still living in poverty
@@MusehanaH which occupation?

Thanks for the information. India should support Mauritius.
Palki you well explained the colonial History 👍.Its a beautiful 😍 island 🏝 😊
How to keep country colonize even in 21st Century?
Simple, just don't call it colony anymore. Call it "Overseas territory" by your name. Example - British overseas territory, French overseas territory.
Not so fast, French overseas territory did not expel people from their land instead they became French citizens and voted to elect the French president while the British treated people of their colonies as subjects.
@@bj6806 still that doesn't justify their colonization, the french have no business staying there.
British and French decimated population when possible and exploited them when beneficial. To avoid blame/shame they touted ridiculous citizenship-worse than secondary citizenship. When it isn't their place and people why r they even there?
@@bj6806How is it better or justified???
@@BlackHawkTejas well, it's not ideal, but it's not genocide or massive dispossession. I realise, though, that the latter are history. Just keeping a perspective.
Watching from Botswana
Island of Western shame for sure
Great Britain is an island of global shame!
Are you aware that the Mauritian government has given India a lease on Agalega island in order to operate a military base there?. Are you also aware that all but one of the heads of government of Mauritius were of Indian descent?. Mauritius is dominated by folks of Indian descent. Are you also aware that the displaced Chagos islanders that live on Mauritius live a largely segregated existence there? The largest community of Chagos islander descendants live in the U.K., and would generally prefer U.K. citizenship to Mauritian citizenship. And it is doubtful if most of those folks would now wish to return to those remote islands to live as plantation workers, islands that the majority of these folks have never seen. The application of decolonisation legislation as prescribed in international law and the advisory opinion of the ICJ is hard to understand for normal folks. Mauritius never owned Chagos. It is a thousand miles distant!. The company that operated the copra plantations there, the Chagos Agalega company, held the concession given by the British government, and was based in (British) Mahe', Seychelles. It is also doubtful if Mauritius could police the marine protected ares of Chagos, which is about as big as France!. One of the most important marine ecology sites on the planet. Chagos should never be given to Mauritius!.
@@baronvonklik7159 And how all these are justification for british to stay there?
@@surajitmondal823 The rulebook of international law has some peculiarities that mean that legal positions that are represented by the ICJ can have unsatisfactory consequences. You have to consider the wishes of the descendants of the islanders that were (shamefully) removed all those years ago. In international law, the position was taken that colonies should be given independence, to include regions that were ruled from the administration of that colony. Territorial integrity was thus deemed of greater importance than self determination.
The Lancaster house agreements that were made bitween Mauritius and Britain granted seperation of Chagos from the administration of Port Louis. "Until a time when the Chagos islands are no longer required".
Unfortunately, the rights of the islanders were not considered.
The whole issue was a mess and a violation of human rights. The mistakes were made in the 1960's, and today we have a different world and a different situation. The importance of Chagos from the ecological standpoint is such, that it is of greatest importance that the marine protected area should be preserved. In view of the ICJ ruling, UNCLOS has deemed the protected area illegal. What would you consider best for nature in this case?.
Think, if Chagos thousand miles distant from Mauritius, then how much distance from UK ?? 😅😅😅
Simple logic 😅😅
Shameful USA !!

This is a shame for US
And both the usa and uk have the audacity to criticize Russia!!!
Russia is still a colonial power. Ask the chechens, Dagestanis and other non-independent nations of Siberia still under the colonial rule of the Russian federation.

@@patricklama8982 Ok. But 1st ask native Siberians who were wiped out by Russians how the remaining few of their descendants are doing. The real russia is only a little territory from Moscow to St-Petersburg. All the rest till vladivostok belongs to other native peoples the russians wiped out.
The world belongs to the strong.
They still think the whole world belongs to them
Watching from Deago Garcia
Again justice is what the mighty and powerful think. So, might is right still holds true.
Considering Mauritius is majority Hindu.. it makes perfect sense for India to back them for the island !!
am watching from zanzibar
mauritius loves india
LOVE MAURITIUS
We love you too ❤
a Britist company rented Sabah North Borneo but Britain inadvertently stole Sabah from filipino owners and gave it to Malaysia. And greedy Malaysia continues the wrongdoings.
They do such things deliberately to create conflicts. And when conflicts happen, they take advantage. They slowly invaded India like this .
BHARAT ALL THE WAY ❤️❤️
stfu its about diego garica and Mauritius not about bharat. it u ur type of guys make bharat bad.
Flashback section is best in this channel i always wait for videos under this section .
It's so superior to most Western channels. There are exceptions, but that is all- exceptions. Flashback and other programs on this Indian channel( News 18 IBN) are always good.
britishers complain why people from other regions come to their country..
Super coverage ms palki
Watching from turkey
All those people talking about andaman and nicobar islands should remember that indian rulers ruled andaman and nicobar for thousands of years .
You can google the Cholan invasion of malaya in 1024 ad . At that time andaman and nicobar worked as base .
Ever heard of kaundinya in 1 ad, the one who established cambodia . Ships in his time used andaman and nicobar as trade stoppage just like Diego Garcia .
So there is atleast 2000 years old indian history attached to Andaman and Nicobar islands
Yeh and then they were too weak to keep them
@@joelhungerford8388you do understand that Andaman and nicorbar is currently part of india , yes ?
@@subhadeep129 no way
@@subhadeep129 give them back to India then
@@joelhungerford8388 are you delusional? You can search on the internet . It's a union territory within the republic of India.
Good work Miss. Palki Sharma
Mauritius will still lease the island to America, but instead of paying rent to the UK, the rent should go to Mauritius and the Mauritian people!
Get it back Mauritius
Britain and US now teaching the world about democracy and human rights! What clowns.
Welcome to the Western rules based international order
These very people condemn Russian Imperialist Expansion.
People of Diago Garcia,
You're getting Western Justice
Or Injustice, Conscience ?
Africa, Asia and the rest of the world should unite and get rid of European neo-colonialism.
Palki Sharma like like the way you present. You and your team are amazing!
Of they woukd i mean mauritius is basically 90% indian and a few whites and asians
Lots of whites are there living happily. One of your whiyte politician even acts like a Nazi .🤷🏻♂️
No more
One of the best media speakers in the world...
I hate slavery to much.....
Bharath should reclaim all tiny puny islands in HinduMaha sagar
@userx3606 For the safety of Hindu's. Akhanda Bharath is the motto :). All the new countries will be independent but it's the Union of Hindu countries
@userx3606 Don't worry, simply shifting a small Hindu town to Mauritius will make Hindu 90% in peaceful way 😊
@@prabhakar0076 the U.S wont let that happen. India is still a poor shithole and Trump will just claim the territory for America.

Don't get worked up. These kinda of statements r usually gi en by anti-hindu anti-india folks living in india but loyal to British masters due their missionary employment
Dear Palki,
Have been a big admirer of your posts which are relevant, on topics which are crucial, well researched presented ina crisp lucid manner.
Would request you to share the link of your post referring to an AI program developed jointly by Narayana Murthy, TCS and Elon Musk for the unemployed in India.
Many thanks Best regards

Well all the hoopla the English raise against oppression in other countries. Perhaps someone should show them the mirror.
You think they don’t know?They just Shameless.They wash they Shame and Drink it!That was long time ago.
Thank you Sharma
Good job India
India darn good at settling little countries problem but without any substance
In mahabharatha war god Krishna only aided pandavas by riding the chariot but the real war was fought by Arjuna. In another Instance lord Siva also told Indian villagers to fight the invaders themselves and he may only aid them. these people should forcibly enter their home land by any means necessary as India,Russia could only aid them after that.
Jai BHARAT MATA KI🇮🇳🙂🙏🚩
British were smart, they divided entire South Asia into Hindu and Muslim. We are always going to keep fighting, while they florish.
See now what's happening 🤷 they are fighting against Islam ( immigrants )
End Western Military/Non-military Colonialism in Deago Garcia ! Support Mauritius ! Support African Union ! End Western Presence in the Indian Ocean Region ! Help in Mauritius Succeeding Reclaim of Deago Garcia Island from Western Powers US and UK !
the first mistake, locals allowing the island to be renamed. happens all the time.
Intelligent lady.
Awesome reporting on this Ms upadya respect 🙏🏾💐
Indians against the US, that's a sight for sore eyes..
Do you know that the current government is the closest to the West and USA in India ever ? Otherwise India was always hostile to USA due to historical reasons. USA and UK actually tried to nuke India in1971.
FINALLY.
GREATE VIDEO
Sir Chandigarh Lobby pr video banaye ❤
Please 🙏
😂 yall think the west have shame how funny
Palki is always nice ❤❤❤
Thx u . We want our archipelagos back from the GB and USA
Good to see Flash back back but timing previously was Saturday evening is now it changed??
Perfectly speaking its all about another version of Slavery without chains attached..
I don’t understand why Indian government should care about this considering the island could serve to be defence against the Chinese. If the island is vacated, the Chinese would claim it through debt trap.
Ok but i belonged to british empire, If you follow the latest thinking of former empires (Russia thinking) it still should belong to British empire.....Shit never ends
Deigo Garcia historical belongs to Mauritias but geographicaly Maldivian.
How big is DIEGO-GARCIA in sq kms in area.

In the Ancient times Laksha-Dweep (meaning million islands) was :-
Today's Lakshadweep + Maldives + Chagos Archipelago + Mauritius
You are not going to solve this problem. I went to by a new plot in upscale layout at my home town the person told very politely sir all plots are sold. My another friend from upper cast was shocked and asked him in front of me on phone about availability of the plot he said they are available. This happened to me even i am so called creamy layer and live in the UK.
Having said that such mind set people are reducing day by day. I hope one day INDIA will get rid of this cancer
Hope Congress will stop this lapdog policy of colonial cronies
🤔☝️
Virtue of deeds is so true.
And it's already happening.
They don't realise because they're big sinners!
Champions of democracy can interpret laws as they wish.
*INDIA SHOULD SHOULD TEACH UK SOME LESSON*
i actually don't understand, in that sense why people talk about France
Chagos islands should be reclaimed by Mauritius otherwise it's a security threat to the southasia countries like India

Correction: Diego garcia population was hindu just like whole indian subcontinent and was forcefully converted into Christianity or islam in india

It's always the same. "Might is right". And they have the audacity to tell us what is right and what is wrong.
India is illegally holding onto South Tibet too.
Will illegally hold north Tibet too
So,the settlement and overall development has been done by France/Dutch/Britain over there. Bringing ppl, supplies,businesses and even the settlement was done by them so how does it belong to any other than France/uk/dutch🙄.
Edit: In my pov as an indian , it's better to be in hands of UK/US than indirectly giving it to China as they can use it as fueling station if in future tensions raise between india and china
SSR stole the compensation and invested it in England. that is how his son inherited a huge property in England
This is why taking repriations from britain is important because they have no remorse and continue doing the same nonsense
