Yes
No
I'm not familiar enough to give a fair judgment
Background
The UK is currently negotiating with Mauritius over the transfer of sovereignty of the Chagos Islands. The proposed deal includes:
A 99-year lease for the US military base on Diego Garcia
Financial compensation to Mauritius (reports indicate £9B ($11B) over 99 years)
My perspective is listed here, along with more context, but please do your own research - I don't pretend to be an expert on the matter
