I am grateful for the support that members of the US Congress have shown for Gibraltar
and we are working with them to build support for Gibraltar’s right to choose to remain
under British sovereignty. The UK has given a firm commitment that we will never enter
into arrangements under which the people of Gibraltar would pass under the Sovereignty
of another State against their wishes. Furthermore we have given an assurance that
we will not enter into a process of Sovereignty negotiations with which Gibraltar
is not content. The wishes of the people of Gibraltar to remain British must be respected.
The UK’s position on sovereignty was reaffirmed most recently in the UN Fourth Committee.
