Ghana intends to propose a resolution at the United Nations General Assembly. This resolution will call for reparations for victims of the transatlantic slave trade. Ghana considers this trade the gravest crime in human history.
The West African nation is a leading voice for reparations on the African continent. The proposal is expected to be formally submitted soon.
Ghana anticipates broad support for the resolution. However, some European nations may resist the call for reparations.
The government believes this is a crucial step towards addressing historical injustices. The proposed UN resolution aims to gain global recognition of the suffering caused by the slave trade.
This move aligns with Ghana's ongoing commitment to advocating for justice and accountability for past atrocities.
