answer text <p>UN Security Council Resolution 2234 refers to Cyprus, and not Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories. The UK did however vote for UN Security Council Resolution 2334, in line with our support for a two-state solution. The resolution calls on all states to distinguish, in their relevant dealings, between the territory of the State of Israel and the territories occupied since 1967. Ultimately the decision to operate in settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories is for each individual or company. It has long been our position that Israeli settlement activity is illegal and undermines the viability of two states for two peoples.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Foreign and Commonwealth Office did not help Libyan exiles or British-Libyan dual nationals living in the UK to travel to Libya in 2011. Our Travel Advice during the 2011 conflict clearly advised against all travel to Libya. In light of the improving security situation from September 2011, we downgraded our advice in some areas, including Tripoli and Benghazi, to advise against all but essential travel.</p> more like this
