“Donald Trump has withdrawn his support for the handover of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius because the UK will not agree to the US military using British bases to attack Iran, it has been reported. The Times newspaper reports that the White House is drawing up detailed military plans for a strike against Iran. The plans are understood to involve the use of the Diego Garcia base, in the Chagos Islands, and RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire. The English base is home to America’s fleet of heavy bombers in Europe. These bases can only be used for military operations that have been agreed in advance with the UK Government, under long-standing agreements between the US and UK.” (02/19/26)
