The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps she is taking with its allies to help uphold human rights in Cameroon.

Answered by Chris Elmore

I refer the Hon Member to the answer given on 24 November 2025 to Question 91527 following elections in Cameroon. Further to this, the UK continues to work with international partners, including through the UN and G7, to encourage the Government of Cameroon to uphold human rights. Through our British High Commission in Yaoundé, we regularly raise concerns and urge stronger democratic governance and engagement with the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.
