ʻO Boris Johnson aloha a me Pelekikena Donald J. Trump,
He ʻano hui mākou, nā pūʻali koa a me nā ʻikepili pili kaiāulu, a me nā loea ʻē aʻe e kākau nei no ke kākoʻo ʻana o nā poʻe Chagossian i hoʻohekele ʻia. E like me kāu i ʻike ai, ua hakakā nā Chagossians i ʻoi aku ma mua o 50 mau makahiki e hoʻi i ko lākou ʻāina i ka India's Chagos Archipelago no ka mea i kipaku ʻia e ka UK a me nā aupuni ʻo US i ka poʻe ma waena o 1968 a me 1973 i ka wā i kūkulu ʻia ai ka pūʻali koa US / UK ma luna o ka Chagossians moku ʻo Diego Garcia.
Kākoʻo mākou i ke kāhea a Chagos Refugees Group e "hoʻohewa i ka hana hewa ʻana o ka [Ch] ʻo Chagos Archipelago e ke aupuni Pelekane" ma hope o ka United Nations General Assembly Resolution i hāpai ʻia ʻo 22 Mei 2019 e kahi koho 116 – 6.
Ke kākoʻo nei mākou i nā Chagossians i kēia lā e kūʻē i ka hopena o ka manawa hope o ʻeono mahina i kauoha ai ka UN i ka United Kingdom 1) e "hoʻihoʻi i kāna alakaʻi kolony" mai i ka Chagos Archipelago, 2) i mea e hoʻomaopopo ai i ka Chagos Archipelago "hana i ka ʻāpana paʻa" o ka Chagos Archipelago. ka pae ʻāina kahiko o Mauritius; a ʻo 3) "e hana pū me Mauritius i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i ka noho ʻana" o Chagossians.
Kākoʻo mākou i ke kāhea a Chagos Refugees Group no ke aupuni UK e hōʻike i "ka mahalo no [ka United Nations" a no ka hoʻokolokolo ʻana o International Court of Justice i ka 25 Pepeluali 2019 nāna i kāhea ʻo UK i ka Chagos Archipelago "ʻaʻole pono" a kauoha i ka UK e "E hoʻopau i ka hoʻokele ʻana o ka Chagos Archipelago i ka hiki ke hiki."
Manaʻo mākou e kaʻana o ke aupuni US i ke kuleana no ka hoʻokauʻē ʻana o nā Chagossians i loko o ka hoʻokau ʻia pio: Ua uku ke aupuni US i kā UK UK $ 14 miliona no ka waiwai kīpē a me ka wehe ʻana o nā Chagossians mai Diego Garcia a me ke koena o nā mokupuni Chagos. Ke kāhea mākou i ke aupuni US e hōʻike i ka lehulehu e kūʻē i ka poʻe Chagossians e hoʻi i ko lākou mokupuni a kōkua i nā Chagossians e hoʻi i ka home.
Hoʻomaopopo mākou i ka noi ʻana o nā Chagos Refugees Group e pani i ka kumu. Makemake wale lākou i ka pono e hoʻi i ka home e noho i ka noho maluhia ʻana me ka pae, kahi e makemake ai ka poʻe e hana. Ua ʻōlelo ke aupuni ʻo Mauritian e ʻae ia e hoʻomau i ka waihona US / UK e hoʻomau e hana. Noho nā poʻe noho ma hope o nā waihona US i ka honua; ʻae like nā loea o ka pūʻali koa e waiho i kahi pilikia palekana.
Kākoʻo mākou i ka hui Chugos Refugees i ka ʻōlelo ʻana i ka UK a me nā aupuni ʻo US ʻaʻole e hiki ke hoʻomau "e kiola i ka kuleana nui 'Chagossians' e noho i kā lākou ʻāina. Loaʻa iā ʻoe ka mana e hoʻoponopono i kēia hana kūhelu kānāwai. Oe ke mana e hōʻike i ko ka honua nā UK a me US kākoʻo i nā pono kanaka. Manaʻo mākou me Chagossians "pono e hana ʻia ka pono" a ʻo ka manawa "e pau i ko lākou mau pilikia."
