star this property answer text <p>We are concerned about the closure of the Rafah Crossing and the impact this has on urgent medical and other priority cases in Gaza. We encourage Egypt to show maximum flexibility on opening the crossing.</p><p>We have frequent discussions with the Government of Israel about the need to ease restrictions on Gaza. Easing restrictions would alleviate the suffering of ordinary Palestinians, advance construction and allow the Gazan economy to grow. A durable agreement is necessary to safeguard Egypt and Israel's security; this would include Hamas and other militant groups permanently ending rocket fire and other attacks.</p> more like this

I refer to the response by the former Minister for the Commonwealth and UN to HL 6160 (3 April). Without further evidence we see no basis on which to raise this at the UN Security Council at this time. We discuss the situation in Darfur on a regular basis in the Security Council, and continue to raise our concerns about the conflict and humanitarian situation in Darfur with the Government of Sudan.</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>The Korea National Insurance Company (KNIC) is a designated entity under EU sanctions on North Korea and, as such, is subject to an asset freeze. Existing UN and EU sanctions against the DPRK are based on UN Security Council Resolutions that prohibit the development of the DPRK's nuclear and ballistic missile programmes. Both EU and UN sanctions target goods and activities that support those programmes, and individuals and organisations who have acted in breach of these Resolutions.</p><p>We believe these sanctions have played a role in slowing down the progress of the DPRK's nuclear and missile programmes.
