<p>In March 2018, in order to establish the facts around the actions of the Myanmar
military, we co-sponsored a resolution that led to the establishment of an independent,
international Fact Finding Mission (FFM). During its mandate, the FFM documented atrocities
in Myanmar. The FFM was clear that what transpired in Myanmar amounted to ethnic cleansing
and could be genocide.</p><p>We agree that any judgment on whether genocide has occurred
is a matter for competent courts, after consideration of all the evidence, through
a credible judicial process. We are aware that The Gambia is planning on bringing
a case at the ICJ on behalf of the OIC. The British Government has not undertaken
its own assessment of the evidence available to the ICJ.</p>
