We write on behalf of the Barotse National Freedom Alliance (“BNFA” or the “Client”) and its representatives, regarding the resolution of the long-standing issue of Barotseland’s disengagement from the Republic of Zambia (“Zambia”). In this respect, we hereby reiterate the invitation, addressed multiple times over the last decade by our Client to your predecessors, to sign a PCA Submission Agreement that would allow for an independent and impartial international arbitration tribunal to determine the current legal status of Barotseland under public international law.
