Former Deputy Foreign Secretary Andrew Mitchell calls for immediate action to implement open registers of beneficial ownership in overseas territories to combat dirty money linked to crime and ensure transparency measures are implemented without further delay.
Former Deputy Foreign Secretary Andrew Mitchell makes it clear that the previous Government would not have agreed to the current deal on the transfer of sovereignty of the Chagos islands to Mauritius and suggests that the Government is hoping the United States will veto the agreement, providing a way out.
Following the Government statement on the situation in Sudan and eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, Andrew Mitchell asks if, during his recent visit, the Foreign Secretary condemned foreign powers using Chad’s President’s private airport to support the RSF and urged the Congolese army to avoid aligning with the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda.
Andrew has a keen interest in international development and in 2007 founded Project Umubano, the Conservative Party’s ten-year social action project in Rwanda. The project culminated with the Kigali Declaration against Genocide and Identity-based Violence.
