The UK is a strong advocate for freedom of religion or belief for all, and we continue to engage with the Government of Qatar on issues around human rights and the importance of due process, including for members of religious minority groups. We also remain in contact with members of the Bahá'í community both in the UK and in Qatar to understand their concerns.
