    l'express - Pèlerinage sur une base militaire

    The natives of Diego Garcia were kicked out of their homes so that their island could be used as a military base for the UK and the US (the only military base in the Indian Ocean).
    It's been 30 years since they were forced to leave (most of them were living in Mauritius), and they are finally getting a chance to go back to visit their homes. I can only imagine how overwhelming this must be for them.

    Quoted: Contrairement à l’île du Coin ou Salomon, c’est une île bien entretenue qui a accueilli les passagers du “Mauritius Trochetia”, hier. Diego Garcia était la dernière étape de leur voyage de mémoire.
