answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/01/2016 answer text I was concerned to hear reports of academics being arrested for expressing their views on the conflict in southeast Turkey. This included 15 academics from Kocaeli University who have subsequently been released. Our Ambassador in Turkey released a public statement on the issue, expressing concern. We regularly underline the importance of Fundamental Freedoms, including freedom of expression as part of our dialogue with the Turkish government. Freedom of expression and public debate must be respected without fear of intimidation. answering member constituency Runnymede and Weybridge answering member printed Mr Philip Hammond question first answered 22/01/2016 14:04:35 answering member 105 label Biography information for Lord Hammond of Runnymede
