UK military personnel are in regular contact with the Omani authorities. Our close bilateral relationship allows us to share ideas and experience on all aspects of security including response to protests in line with the rule of law and respect for human rights. The Chief of the Defence Staff has not had any contact with the Omani authorities regarding the recent protests in that country.
