EU concerned at 'violent repression' in Cameroon, urges 'restraint'

BRUSSELS, Belgium, Oct 28, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - The EU said Tuesday it was "deeply concerned" about the violent repression of protests that rocked Cameroon after the announcement that President Paul Biya had secured an eighth term in office.

"The European Union urges all sides to maintain restraint and refrain from any action that may further exacerbate tensions," the bloc's foreign affairs spokesman Anouar El Anouni said, adding the EU deplored "the death by firearm of a number of civilians."
