Mr Hague told Parliament that the decision had been reached after he met leaders from the Syrian National Coalition and was convinced of their commitment to human rights and responsible leadership.
The Syrian National Coalition for Opposition and Revolutionary Forces was formed earlier this month in Doha to unite Syria's splintered opposition groups, in an attempt to boost their chances of securing foreign aid and arms in their bid to topple President Bashar al-Assad. The Syrian regime has so far survived a rebellion that has lasted 21 months and claimed an estimated 30,000 lives.
Mr Hague said: "The whole House will join me in condemning the barbaric violence by the Assad regime which continues its aerial warfare against Aleppo, Homs and Damascus itself."
He said the Government would look to increase pressure on President Assad, telling MPs he would "take every opportunity" to urge Russia and China, which have supported the regime until now, to help negotiate a political solution to the crisis.
The Foreign Secretary added: "The basis for a political alternative is clear: a credible alternative to the Assad regime is emerging that has the growing support of the Arab League, the European Union, the United States and other countries."
