The Consolidated EU and National Arms Export Licensing Criteria provide a thorough risk assessment framework for considering all applications to export military and surveillance equipment to Turkey. We will not grant a licence if to do so would be inconsistent with these criteria, including respect for human rights and international humanitarian law. The policy remains as announced to Parliament in a Written Ministerial Statement on 25 March 2014: https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201314/cmhansrd/cm140325/wmstext/140325m0001.htm#14032566000018<\/a> and as updated in a Written Ministerial Statement on 13 September 2018: https://www.parliament.uk/business/publications/written-questions-answers-statements/written-statement/Commons/2018-09-13/HCWS957/<\/a> .<\/p> <\/p> The UK has raised human rights issues with the Turkish government at the highest levels and the region is kept under review.<\/p>"}
