Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what analysis they have made of the October 2022 report by Médecins Sans Frontières alleging violent maltreatment of refugees on the island of Lesbos, including abductions, and also deprivation of food and basic care.

The UK Government consistently urges all states to uphold international law and international human rights standards and to avoid any action that may endanger human life. We have made no specific assessment in relation to these reports. We regularly discuss migration and treatment of refugees with all of our partners.
