Syria: Politics and Government
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he has held discussions with the Syrian opposition.
Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer
The UK remains committed to the UN-facilitated political process and recognises the vital role that the Opposition has in facilitating a lasting peace settlement in Syria. We regularly meet representatives of the Syrian Opposition at official level including most recently on 13 November. Furthermore this year, as part of our ongoing support, the UK provided a direct grant to the Syrian Negotiation Commission to support their efforts.
