Occupied Palestinian Territories: Genocide Risk Assessment
"I completely agree with my hon. Friend. He used to work for Save the Children, which has also been de-registered—the shame of it. We must act.

Question
to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment her Department has made of the potential implications for its policies of reports of the use of cryptocurrency exchanges by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps via UK-based platforms.

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether she has had recent discussions with her Syrian counterpart on the representation of Kurdish people in the Syrian Government.
