	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/06/2015 answer text <p>President Assad retains control of some key areas for the Syrian government but is losing ground to ISIL and a range of armed opposition groups across the country. Assad continues to defy the international community through his barbaric actions, including using artillery and barrel bombs against civilians, some containing chlorine.</p><p>The UK has been at the forefront of the response to the humanitarian crisis in Syria. A political transition as set out in the Geneva communique is more vital than ever. We will be working with the UN Special Envoy and others to help push forward a political process, helping create the right conditions on the ground by supporting the moderate opposition and putting Assad's regime under pressure.</p> answering member constituency Portsmouth North answering member printed Penny Mordaunt question first answered 01/06/2015 16:30:29 answering member 4017 label Biography information for Penny Mordaunt
