"Madam President, Madam High Representative, the tragedy caused by the stalemate in Syria shows precisely the importance of mediation and diplomatic sophistication. That the international community has let this brutal civil war carry on for so long not only highlights its failure, but also displays an incredible lack of capacity in negotiation. That was often a role played by Great Britain, and it is my hope that our imminent diplomatic independence will allow us to fill this mediation gap, helping to assist the international community in working for the benefit of people trapped in these awful conflicts. We may not like everybody who we have to deal with on the international stage, but we cannot continue to allow conflicts to carry on over what ultimately boils down to disagreements between great powers. We must put these differences aside and return to sensible geopolitics, including the work towards a genuine sustainable peace in Syria."@en1
