Proceeding contribution from Richard Younger-Ross (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 18 December 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

I apologise for missing the beginning of the Minister’s statement. Further to the question from the hon. Member for Birmingham, Edgbaston (Ms Stuart), can the Secretary of State confirm that the situation in Afghanistan is not like that in Iraq, that great progress is being made in terms of both reconstruction and peacekeeping, and that the EU, like Britain, remains firmly committed in the long term to solving Afghanistan’s problems?
