<p>British Embassy officials have been monitoring the Kobane trials in person and,
whenever possible, will continue to do so, alongside other like-mind missions. We
follow events in Turkey carefully, particularly government moves to close down the
People's Democratic Party (HDP), the lifting of immunity for its MPs, and the replacement
of opposition mayors by state-appointed officials. While these decisions are for the
Turkish Government, we expect Turkey to undertake legal processes fairly, transparently
and with full respect for the rule of law.</p>
