<p>We have daily discussions with the Syrian National Coalition, most notably with
its leadership through the UK Special Representative to Syria, Jon Wilks, but also
at Ministerial level. We are in regular touch with the National Coalition representative
in London. We have supported the National Coalition since its foundation in 2012 and
have consistently encouraged it to reach out to all Syrians as a democratic, inclusive
and unified organisation. This has included practical support to the National Coalition,
including on strategic communications and design of internal structures and organisation.
The UK is a leading member of the “London 11”, the core group of the Friends of Syria,
who are the National Coalition's strongest supporters. Most recently we hosted a meeting
of senior officials from the London 11 in London on 7 March.</p>
