== After expulsion == After the expulsion, many Chagossians protested to return to their islands, so the British government offered a contract, where they would be given a monetary compensation that was not enough to lift them out of poverty, and like many did not know English (to be exact , the contract was in legal English), the British took advantage of this to put in the contract that the Chagossians who signed the contract would renounce their rights as inhabitants of the Chagos Islands, for which many signed naively. Later, secret documents showing the conspiracy and conversations of the United Kingdom and United States governments were discovered, which would have lied to the United Nations saying that the islands were disabled, violating the United Nations charter (which says that The United Kingdom must protect the rights of all its citizens). After the discovery of these documents, the London Supreme Court agreed with the Chagossians that they had to return to their islands, however, the British government ignored this. Currently, the Expulsion of the Chagossians is considered a [[crime against humanity]] and an illegal act, and currently the Chasonians are still unable to return to the Chagos Islands, while the United States has used the base to attack targets in Afghanistan and Iraq.
