The UK fully supports a Syrian-led and Syrian-owned political transition process leading to an inclusive, non-sectarian and representative government. We welcome provisions within the Constitutional Declaration on freedom of expression, freedom of belief and women's rights. Further consultation of key groups across Syria is essential as the constitutional drafting process takes place.
