Yeah, well, the US is literally never giving up Diego Garcia, furthermore, I don't think the British will, either. It is a strategically important base for several reasons.

I don't see any reason why the Chagossians would have a valid legal claim over the .io ccTLS, seeing as the British Crown has dominion over the territory and leases it to the U.S.

Can they do that? Why then complain about the Russians never giving up Crimea then?

Ah but you see, the British did it "the right way", by planting flags first. https://youtu.be/_9W1zTEuKLY?si=yaPO0P2yTgQULcYj

In international relations, traditionally, might makes right. We are trying to get over this as a species (hence why these trials are even allowed to run), but we're still a way off.

If they think they can live without the first world, let them - sanction them and see how they fare.
