Proceeding contribution from Mike Gapes (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 February 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq and the Middle East.


Iraq and the Middle East

The Prime Minister has referred several times to the Baker-Hamilton Iraq study group recommendations and he is right that the British Government have been engaged with Syria and Iran. Is not the essence of those recommendations that the United States, which does not have diplomatic relations with Iran, should change its approach and perhaps do what it has done with North Korea? Perhaps that would be the best way of getting a solution in the region.
