answer text <p>Together with our international partners, including the US, we are following the ongoing Saudi and Turkish investigations closely. We continue to stress that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia must put in place measures to ensure that this can never happen again. We need to see proper accountability for those responsible but we must not pre-empt the outcome of the investigation.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The UK strongly condemns any language or actions that could stir up hatred and prejudice. Our sustained support to the Palestinian Authority (PA) is underpinned by a Memorandum of Understanding which requires the PA to commit to the principle of non-violence and to tackle language and avoid actions that could incite violence or hatred. The UK continues to urge the Palestinian leadership to uphold this principle. President Abbas restated his commitment to the two-state solution on September 27 at the UN General Assembly.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The UK is a strong supporter of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI) and we work closely with the partnership. The GPEI has reduced cases of polio by 99.9% since 1988. Notwithstanding its success, transmission of the poliovirus has not been interrupted. This means the world cannot yet be certified polio free and as such GPEI are developing a new strategy taking them past 2019.</p> more like this
