Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 September 2025

Debate

Ethiopia and Eritrea

Contribution

A recent report from Physicians for Human Rights and the Organization for Justice and Accountability on the Horn of Africa documents mass rape, sexual slavery and forced pregnancy in Tigray, allegedly committed by Eritrean and Ethiopian soldiers. It calls for an international investigation into a possible crime of genocide. What steps are the Government taking to support such investigations?
