<p>We welcome the fact that the ceasefire in north-east Syria appears to be broadly
holding and that Turkey has confirmed it has no plans for a further offensive. Implementation
of the ceasefire is for the parties directly involved but we have made clear our expectation
that all parties abide by the agreed ceasefire and by their obligations under international
humanitarian law. We been consistently clear with Turkey on our opposition to its
military action in north-east Syria – the Prime Minister, Foreign Secretary and Minister
for the Middle East and North Africa have each made this clear to their Turkish counterparts,
most recently on 26 October.</p>
