Financial institutions are urged to immediately withdraw their financial support from TotalEnergies’ Mozambique LNG project in Cabo Delgado, following the exit of UK Export Finance (UKEF) and the Dutch export credit agency Atradius DSB over human rights concerns.
Civil society organisations have sent a formal letter to about 30 public and private financial institutions linked to the project, highlighting its alleged links to serious human rights violations, the deteriorating regional security, and the risks of economic instability for Mozambique. The letter also warns of the growing legal risks for institutions involved with the project and the increasingly evident environmental risks.
