answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/11/2014 answer text <p>The Prime Minister, my right hon. Friend the Member for Witney(Mr Cameron), discussed the threat of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and related issues including securing peace in Syria when he met President Rouhani in September at the UN General Assembly. We have also used our expanding bilateral relationship with Iran over the last year to discuss ISIL and other regional issues. We hope that the Iranian government will respond to the shared threat from ISIL by aligning their approach with the international community’s efforts to bring stability to Iraq and Syria.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 21/11/2014 14:00:08 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns

The IDF has demarcated a 6-mile radius at the western nautical border.</p><p>The demarcation of the northern border is not as clear to fishermen and this border area is the site of many incidents. During Operation Protective Edge, we raised our concern with the IDF several times over incidents in which fishermen were reportedly shot. The IDF maintained that the Israeli Navy fired only warning shots into the air when the fishermen ventured over the nautical border.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 21/11/2014 13:59:05 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
