<p>The UK has consistently called for the situation in Syria to be referred to the
International Criminal Court and supported efforts at the UN Security Council to achieve
this. However, these efforts were blocked by Russia and China on 22 May 2014. In partnership
with other donor countries, we have funded the collection of documentary evidence
of human rights abuses and violations. We will also look to expand the EU sanctions
regime to cover more people responsible for human rights abuses and violations. We
will continue to press for those responsible to be held accountable.</p>
