Aleppo and Syria

"Where did those people go and what did they do? I will take no lectures from Labour Front Benchers about the appeasement of terrorists, whether it is in Northern Ireland or Aleppo. I am glad that what has been shared from the Labour Front Bench has not been reflected in …..."

Aleppo and Syria

"I do entirely—it will. Reports at the weekend have suggested that Russia is succeeding in the electromagnetic war. It is succeeding in jamming signals and removing the cover and support for Syrian rebel fighters, meaning that it can attack them. It is succeeding in drone strikes, and is operating those …..."

Written Question
India: Shipping
Thursday 7th July 2016

Asked by: Gavin Robinson (Democratic Unionist Party - Belfast East)

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what progress has been made on efforts to free the Seamen Guard Ohio crew.

Answered by Lord Swire

We continue to follow this case closely, raising it at Ministerial and Official level at every opportunity, as we have done since November 2013. The case has now been raised at Ministerial level 38 times since November 2013. The Prime Minister, my Rt Hon. Friend the Member for Witney (Mr Cameron) raised it for the fifth time in a letter to Prime Minister Modi in June. I raised the case in April with the Foreign Secretary of India while he was in London and most recently in May during my visit to India when accompanied by the British High Commissioner I also visited the men in prison. While we cannot interfere in the Indian legal process, we will continue to use every opportunity to raise the case at all levels.
