Israel-Iran War News: Trump Disappointed With UK PM Starmer Over Diego Garcia Base For Iran Strikes

Wed, 03 Jun 2026 04:06:41 +0000

President Donald Trump has expressed disappointment with United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer for blocking the use of Diego Garcia base to carry out strikes on Iran. This comes despite the UK allowing America to use multiple bases and ports to attack Iran and backing the joint military operation of America and Israel on Iran in principle. Diego Garcia is located in the Chagos Islands, which has been at the centre of a territorial dispute between Mauritius and the UK. The International Court ruled in favour of Mauritius, and the UK formally agreed to the handover of Chagos. Trump had previously objected to this handover, stating the UK had no right to do so as Diego Garcia hosts one of America's most important bases. The base is maintained by the United Kingdom, though maintenance is funded by the United States.
