<p>The Foreign Secretary spoke to Burma's State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi on 11

to atrocity prevention includes the prediction and prevention of identity-based mass
violence, alongside other forms of violence and instability, and is set within the
Government's wider work on conflict prevention. Our early warning systems, such as
our annual internal report on Countries at Risk of Instability, are complemented by

directing Government engagement and activity on atrocity prevention and the Responsibility
to Protect.</p>
