Mauritius will hold legislative elections on November 10, the presidency announced on Friday, just a day after Port Louis sealed a landmark deal to regain sovereignty over a chain of islands from Britain. Parliament was to be dissolved immediately, President Prithvirajsing Roopun's office said, with candidates to be nominated by October 22. A five-year deadline meant parliament was due to be dissolved by late November in any case. But the announcement came just after Mauritius secured a long-awaited deal with Britain on Thursday to regain control of the Chagos Islands. For years, Britain had resisted international pressure to hand back the remote Indian Ocean archipelago because it maintains a military base jointly with the United States on the biggest island, Diego Garcia. Under the deal, Britain will retain a lease to keep the military base open for an «initial» 99 years. Mauritius is a prosperous and stable democracy in a sometimes volatile neighbourhood. It is predominantly Hindu but with sizeable Muslim and Chinese constituencies, as well as groups from Creole and European backgrounds. Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth inherited his position in 2017 on the death of his father, Anerood Jugnauth, as head of the centre-right Morisian Alliance. He confirmed his standing with victory in the 2019 election, when his coalition won 42 of 70 seats. - 'Justice' - Britain decided in 1965 to separate the Chagos islands from Mauritius and set up a military base there, which it later developed alongside the United States. The base is home US long-range bombers and ships and was used during the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Thursday's deal was hailed by US President Joe Biden as a «historic agreement». Biden said the base «plays a vital role in national, regional, and global security». «For the first time in more than 50 years, the status of the base will be undisputed and legally secure,» the UK foreign ministry added. Jugnauth said Thursday that the deal showed how a small country can «win justice against major powers». «Today, 56 years after our independence, our decolonisation is complete. Now our national anthem can sound out even louder across our territory,» he said. Britain evicted thousands of Chagos islanders when it built the base in the 1970s. The new treaty, which has yet to be finalised, could pave the way for their return, though that is considered unlikely given the current lack of any permanent population. © Agence France-Presse

Maldives President Mohamed Muizzu will undertake his first state visit to India on Sunday, aiming to repair frail ties between the two South Asian neighbours. Pro-China Muizzu came to power a year ago on a promise to evict dozens of Indian troops deployed in his small but strategically located archipelago. Most South Asian leaders are invited to New Delhi soon after they assume office, but it has taken almost a year for India to accord Muizzu a state visit. India met Muizzu's May deadline to withdraw a contingent of 78 soldiers stationed in the Maldives to operate two helicopters and a fixed-wing plane. However, the aircraft remained and are being operated by a civilian Indian crew. «President Muizzu remains committed to enhancing bilateral ties with nations that play a crucial role in the development and growth of the Maldives,» his office said while announcing the Delhi visit. The two sides will focus on «strengthening bilateral cooperation and further enhancing the longstanding relationship between the two nations,» the president's office said in a statement. In June, Muizzu travelled to Delhi as one of many Asian leaders to grace Prime Minister Narendra Modi's inauguration following his victory in a third consecutive election. India's Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar travelled to Male in August and said that Delhi was «committed to deepening India-Maldives ties». Known as a luxury holiday destination with pristine white sand beaches and secluded resorts, the atoll nation has also become a geopolitical hotspot. India is apprehensive about China's growing presence in the Indian Ocean. Global, east-west shipping lanes pass the nation's chain of 1,192 tiny coral islands, stretching around 800 kilometres (500 miles) across the equator. India's government has traditionally regarded the Maldives, as well as neighbouring Sri Lanka, to be within its sphere of influence. Since coming to power, Muizzu has toned down his anti-Indian rhetoric and has stated that he would not disrupt the regional balance by replacing Indian forces with Chinese troops. © Agence France-Presse

At more than one in five, the number of children at risk of poverty in the European Union (EU) remains high. This year's International Day for the Eradication of Poverty presents an opportunity to take stock of what the EU is doing to fight child poverty. Even though legal competence for child policy remains primarily with the Member States, the fight against child poverty is a major EU priority. The European strategy on the right of the child now reflects the EU's increasing willingness to tackle child poverty, while the use of European funds is key to success.
