answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/04/2018 answer text <p>The British Government is clear that the UN-led Geneva process between the Syrian parties, mandated by UN Security Council Resolution 2254, remains the forum for reaching a lasting political settlement to end the conflict in Syria and we fully support the efforts of UN Special Envoy Staffan de Mistura. All international efforts towards peace in Syria must be in support of the UN-led process. The Syrian Negotiation Commission continues to engage constructively, in good faith and without preconditions. The Asad regime must now engage credibly in Geneva talks and Russia must use all the influence it can to ensure that it does so.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 03/04/2018 13:47:57 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

There remains an urgent need for all the parties to reach an agreement that addresses the underlying causes of the conflict in Gaza and to take the necessary steps to ensure Gaza’s reconstruction and economic recovery. Any agreement should ensure that Hamas and other militant groups permanently end rocket and other attacks against Israel; the Palestinian Authority resumes control of Gaza and restores effective governance; and that Israel lifts its restrictions to ease the suffering of ordinary Palestinians.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 19/04/2017 15:03:01 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
