[James Cleverly🇬🇧 @JamesCleverly]

Welcome important agreement between the Ethiopian Government and Tigrayan authorities to end the terrible conflict in northern #Ethiopia. I applaud their choice of peace, and the mediation efforts of African Union, South Africa and Kenya. UK is ready to support the peace process.

[Vicky Ford @vickyford]

I also urge TPLF to join

➡️cessation of hostilities
➡️AU-led peace talks

And to support restart of humanitarian access across North Ethiopia

[Vicky Ford @vickyford]

I urged for

For the sake of the people of Ethiopia.

Terrible news of another aid worker killed in #Tigray. Aid workers need access & safety to perform life-saving work – as set out in International Humanitarian Law. Gravely concerned about potential for renewed atrocities in Tigray – urge protection of civilians as priority.

Today is World Mental Health Day. Anyone can experience poor mental health - any gender, any age, any country. Let’s make recognising the importance of Mental Health and Wellbeing a global priority. And above all be kind - we rarely know what is beneath the surface. #WMHD2022

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

In this moment of peril, I must underscore my duty as Secretary-General to uphold the @UN Charter.

The Charter is clear.

Any annexation of a State’s territory by another State resulting from the threat or use of force is a violation of the Principles of the Charter & int’l law.

Feast of the Holy Cross or Meskel here in Asmara today. Lots of Eritreans celebrating this special day in the Eritrean orthodox calendar. Nice to be a part of it

[Vicky Ford @vickyford]

Important conversation with Ethiopian DPM @DemekeHasen yesterday. I expressed concern about impact of renewed conflict on humanitarian crisis in northern #Ethiopia and reiterated calls for a truce, restoration of humanitarian access to #Tigray, and for Eritrean forces to leave.

[Gillian Keegan @GillianKeegan]

Gravely concerned by escalation of fighting in #Ethiopia. The involvement of Eritrean forces will deepen the conflict and exacerbate one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises - they should leave #Tigray. UK calls on all parties to reinstate the truce and begin peace talks.

[UK Prime Minister @10DowningStreet]

A National Moment of Reflection will take place with a one-minute silence at 8pm tonight to mourn the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and reflect on her life and legacy.

[@UKAmb_Walker @UkambW]

@jabberworks Sarah, you and Stuart would be welcome to visit when we are back in November. We live just round the corner! Alisdair and Sue

[Liz Truss @trussliz]

On behalf of a grieving nation I offer my deepest condolences on the passing of Her Majesty.

She was the rock on which modern Britain was built.

The thoughts of this government and this nation are with His Majesty The King and his family.

[@UKAmb_Walker @UkambW]

The British Embassy has the sad honour to relay the news of the death of Her Majesty The Queen on Thursday 8 September 2022. A condolence book will be open at the British Embassy on Friday 9 September from 11 to 13:00 and from Monday 12 to Friday 16 September from 9 to 16:00.

[The Royal Family @RoyalFamily]

The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.

The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.

[Liz Truss @trussliz]

The whole country will be deeply concerned by the news from Buckingham Palace this lunchtime.

My thoughts - and the thoughts of people across our United Kingdom - are with Her Majesty The Queen and her family at this time.

[@UKAmb_Walker @UkambW]

Cycled out of Asmara this morning along the Keren road. The countryside is looking very green after the rains. Dodged more rain on way back taking new ring road

[Vicky Ford @vickyford]

The return to conflict in Ethiopia will be catastrophic for its people – I urge all parties to stop fighting and begin talks. Full statement below ⬇️
