Oral answer to question provided on Tuesday, 25 March 2008 in the House of Commons, by Kim Howells (Labour), Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
Iraq
- Answer
-
There is very little I disagree with in that.
- Question
- Are we not seeing a post-Iraq foreign policy emerging, exemplified by President Sarkozy's visit here, his desire to see a reintegration with NATO and to send more troops to Afghanistan, and also by Senator John McCain's statement on the front page of Le Monde at the weekend that the US must listen to its allies and rebuild relations with Europe? Is not the real lesson to learn that Europe and the US must work together and the US must listen to Europe? Britain has to be a leader in Europe, and the way forward is neither the anti-European populism of the right nor the stupid anti-US rhetoric of the left.
