UK considers appointing envoy to aid release of detained Britons abroad, inspired by US model.
The UK is considering appointing an envoy to help secure the release of British citizens detained abroad, inspired by the US Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs.
This follows cases like jailed activists Alaa Abdel Fattah and Jimmy Lai, where relatives and human rights groups have criticized the government for a lack of urgency.
The new envoy, to be named "Envoy for Complex Consular Detentions," aims to improve support and transparency for detained Britons, though the UK does not engage in prisoner exchanges.
