answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/06/2019 answer text <p>As the UK said at the UN Security Council on 22 May, Hamas’s ongoing decision to embrace violence and reject the Quartet Principles lies at the heart of the Gazan tragedy. Hamas’s decision to send rockets towards Israel is unacceptable and must stop. Our policy on Hamas is clear: they must renounce violence, recognise Israel and accept previously signed agreements. Violence further undermines the humanitarian situation in Gaza, creates fear amongst the Israeli and Palestinian populations, and damages the prospects for peace. We urge all parties to demonstrate restraint, and work towards a durable agreement that addresses the underlying causes of the conflict and transforms the situation in Gaza.</p> answering member constituency South West Wiltshire answering member printed Dr Andrew Murrison question first answered 11/06/2019 15:39:46 answering member 1466 label Biography information for Dr Andrew Murrison
