A dispute over the Scattered Islands has existed between France and Madagascar. Two United Nations General Assembly resolutions have asked France to enter into negotiations with Madagascar for the restitution of these islands. Nevertheless, because the occupation of these islands promotes its interests, France does not want to return them to Madagascar. In addition, Madagascar has not yet taken all possible steps to recover these islands. The purpose of that research is to help Madagascar to recover the Scattered Islands. To achieve that objective, advice from several experts in international relations has been taken into consideration. In addition, what Mauritius has done, which is in the same situation as Madagascar, has been analyzed. Finally, personal research and analysis were done. Thus, to recover the Scattered islands, Madagascar should in particular resort to international justice. It should also resort to a media war against France, and to Russian and Chinese support.
