These are core values we share with our Mauritian counterparts. DCC Jardine and Commander Lawes’ visit demonstrates the UK’s commitment to supporting Mauritius’ ambitions in security and law enforcement.
We look forward to deepening our partnership with the Mauritian Government on these important issues. ’ said the British High Commissioner to Mauritius, H. E. Mrs Charlotte Pierre.
