Proceeding contribution from Lord Drayson (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 26 February 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Afghanistan: UK Forces.


Afghanistan: UK Forces

My Lords, that is a very important point, but we need to recognise the geographic challenges in the nature of the territory and the borders. It is very difficult to police those areas. It is the responsibility of the Afghan Government supported by the Afghan forces, with the coalition partners in support, and also of those countries that border Afghanistan.
