NPOV violation[edit]

"The detachment of the Chagos was a clear violation of international law." - This is uncited, and appears to be opinion. No court has come to this conclusion. 184.166.2.234 (talk) 00:55, 22 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. Removed yet there's still plenty more. I note that Britain contends that "the Archipelago was detached from Mauritius in 1965 with the full agreement of the Mauritian Council of Ministers"--Brian Dell (talk) 02:24, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not NPOV[edit]

This article largely represents the view of the Mauritian government, and uncritically presents the Mauritian position as the "correct" position. For example, the citation for "Chagos always was part of Mauritius, and was generally recognised as being so, until the UK purported to split it off in 1965" is for an article written by the ambassador for Mauritius. This article needs a more neutral POV, an explanation of the British viewpoint (to be clear, an explanation of the Mauritian viewpoint should also remain), and reliable sources: i.e. "reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy."
