        "Could be returned to Ethiopia on a long-term loan"??? What in the name of fraud does that mean?? Britain stole the treasures from Ethiopia, so they should be returned unconditionally! No wonder someone said British history is a history of thievery.

        If the UK started to give the things it looted back - there would be nothing left.

        LOL, So they are going to loan them what they stole from them? This sounds like a very American thing to do...if it was an American thing.

        Lol “long term loan” does not mean “returned” it means “here you can borrow the thing we stole from you for a while.”

        If they were "taken"..... Why don't they just give them back instead of letting them borrow the them

        Legalized stealing to come to an end thanks to increase in wealth in the Northern Hemisphere. UK and France still have laws prohibiting return of stolen treasures. Where is the moral authority to judge others?
