US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has launched a new attack on Starmer over the Chagos Surrender this morning at Davos:
“President Trump has made it clear that we will not outsource our national security or our hemispheric security to any other countries… Our partner in the UK is letting us down with the base on Diego Garcia, which we’ve shared together for many, many years, and they want to turn it over to Mauritius.”
Yesterday he told Fox News: “We share a military facility on an island called Diego Garcia, and the UK is giving that island to Mauritius, and guess who is behind Mauritius? The Chinese.”
It sounds like the China hawks have finally made successful overtures in the White House. Starmer looks even stupider with his nonsensical “China, Russia, and Iran oppose the Chagos deal” line…
