Select Committee Inquiry
16 Jul 2026 A new Syria: assessing UK strategy in a transitional state Foreign Affairs Committee (Select) Not accepting submissions The Committee is examining the UK Government’s approach to Syria following the collapse of the Assad Regime in December 2024 and the establishment of a transitional government.  The inquiry will determine what the UK’s diplomatic, security, humanitarian and accountability strategies are in the region, given the rapidly changing political landscape, and how the UK can best support Syria’s stability and regional security.  It will also consider whether the UK government should have greater oversight of Syria’s transitional government and how that can be carried out to the best effect. Read more about this inquiry.
15 Jul 2026 Russia Foreign Affairs Committee (Select) Submit Evidence (by 3 Sep 2026) The National Security Strategy and Strategic Defence Review identify Russia as the most acute threat to the UK. Since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the UK Government has focused its defence and foreign policy posture on visible and practical support for Ukraine. The Committee is launching an inquiry on Russia to consider the UK’s bilateral relationship and whether the UK’s long-term strategic approach to a post-conflict Russia is clearly defined.    The inquiry will examine Russia’s international alliances and strategic partnerships; the current domestic situation and foreign policy of Russia and the UK’s approach to it; and the conditions required for a ceasefire or negotiated settlement in Ukraine, as well as what that means for Ukraine, for Russia and for European security more widely. Lastly, the inquiry will consider the UK’s immediate readiness and capacity for long-term foreign policy planning in the context of the FCDO2030 restructure.  The Committee is accepting written evidence until 3 September 2026.  Read the call for evidence for more details about the inquiry.
