YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe British wife of ousted Syrian leader Bashar Assad is a sanctioned individual and is "not welcome here in the UK", the Foreign Secretary has said.
David Lammy's comments come after the Prime Minister said it was too early to say whether the Government would strip Asma al-Assad of her British citizenship.
Mrs Assad was born in London in 1975 and was raised and educated in the city. She is now believed to be in Moscow with her husband, where the overthrown leader has fled.
The rapid collapse of the Assad regime saw a coalition of rebel groups seize control of Damascus on Sunday.
