Proceeding contribution from Lord Hague of Richmond (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 July 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on International Affairs.


International Affairs

My hon. Friend points to part of the immense difficulty for the Lebanese Government, because there are of course Hezbollah members of that Government. There is no doubt that the Government of Lebanon would like the implementation of UN resolution 1559. They believed that they had started a political process that could lead to that, but it did not happen in sufficient time to spare us from the conflict, which was launched deliberately, as the Foreign Secretary said, by Hezbollah.
