answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 31/01/2018 answer text <p>​We are closely following the latest developments in Afrin. Arms exports to Turkey, like all other countries, are subject to export controls. Applications are considered on a case-by-case basis against the Consolidated EU and National Arms Export Licensing Criteria, known as the Consolidated Criteria. Decisions are based on the most up-to-date information and analysis available, including reports from our overseas network and military contacts. The Consolidated Criteria provide a thorough risk assessment framework and require us to consider the impact of providing equipment and its capabilities. We do not issue export licences where, for example, we assess there is a clear risk that the goods might be used for internal repression or used aggressively against another country. We keep our approach to all countries under continual review.</p> answering member constituency Rutland and Melton answering member printed Sir Alan Duncan question first answered 31/01/2018 17:08:30 answering member 343 label Biography information for Sir Alan Duncan
