<p>We are concerned by reports in the media. As I tweeted on 2 November, language
that invites violence against any community in society should be rejected. The British
High Commission, alongside international partners, carried out a demarche on the Tanzanian
Ministry of Foreign Affairs on 2 November urging the Tanzanian authorities to respect
human rights and protect all Tanzanian citizens from discrimination. We welcome the
subsequent statement by the Tanzanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs restating their
protection of rights enshrined in their Constitution. We will continue to raise our
human rights concerns with the Government of Tanzania and did so most recently at
senior official level on 12 November with the Tanzanian High Commissioner to London.</p>
