<p>The UK continues to be deeply concerned at high levels of violence in the North-West
and South-West (Anglophone) regions of Cameroon, reports of human rights violations
and abuses and the severe impact the deteriorating humanitarian situation is having
on ordinary civilians. We continue to call for an end to violence on all sides and
urge the Government of Cameroon to establish a credible political dialogue to address
the root causes of the crisis. The UK has shared experiences with the Government on
conflict resolution; we remain ready to provide further support. On 13 May, the UK
participated in an informal discussion on Cameroon at the UN Security Council, noting
that dialogue and humanitarian assistance were needed to exit the crisis. The UK also
raised concerns in a statement at the bi-annual UN Office for Central Africa briefing
in the UN Security Council on 13 December 2018, calling for urgent action by the Government
to prevent further conflict. The UK regularly discusses developments in Cameroon with
international partners, including France and the US, to encourage and support efforts
to resolve the crisis.</p>
