Mr David Lammy

Labour — Tottenham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 July 2025

Debate

Middle East

Contribution

I refer the right hon. Gentleman to the statement I made back in September and the addendum to that statement, which set out the basis on which I have judged that there was a clear risk to international humanitarian law. He knows that the long-established position is that it is for the international courts to make any determination of genocide. Our assessment is there is a clear risk of a breach of international humanitarian law.
