The previous Foreign Secretary discussed the treatment of minority religious communities with Foreign Minister Qureshi during his visit to the UK in June. The UK strongly condemns the persecution of all minorities, including the targeting of innocent people based on their beliefs. The British Government continues to urge Pakistan to honour its human rights obligations, including those related to religious minorities, and to uphold the rule of law.</p> more like this

Whatever the political solution, Lebanon needs a government that can urgently deliver vital reforms necessary to create a better country for all. Violence or intimidation of peaceful protests from any group only undermines Lebanon's unity and stability. The UK will continue to support a secure, stable, sovereign and prosperous Lebanon.</p> more like this

We continue to urge the Iraqi security forces to show restraint and call for the protests to be peaceful. The Foreign Secretary spoke to Iraqi Prime Minister Abdul Mehdi on 9 October to express UK concerns about the disproportionate security response and push for the Government to take action to respond to protesters' legitimate concerns. I spoke to Foreign Minister Al-Hakim on 10 October to underline these points. Our Ambassador in Baghdad has been in close contact with senior Iraqis including the Iraqi President and Prime Minister. We are also working with international partners and the UN to encourage and support the Government of Iraq to take quick and effective action on tackling corruption, creating jobs and improving services, in line with the protestors' legitimate demands.</p> more like this

We remain in close touch with the Tunisian authorities and look forward to working with the new Government when it is formed. While British Ministers have not yet met President Saied, UK officials attended his inauguration. The Minister for the Middle East and North Africa, Dr Murrison, held comprehensive talks with the then Tunisian Secretary of State to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Sabri Bachtobji, at the UK-Tunisia Bilateral Forum in London on 12 September. Mr Bachtobji was appointed Acting Foreign Minister on 29 October. The signing of the UK-Tunisia Association Agreement on 4 October, and the UK-Tunisia Investment Forum on 22 October are other recent highlights of our growing bilateral co-operation and, along with UK programming worth over £12 million in 2019-2020, testament to our continuing support for Tunisia’s political and economic development.</p> more like this
