Proceeding contribution from Bob Russell (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 26 February 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Afghanistan (Force Levels).
Afghanistan (Force Levels)
Today’s statement confirms the point that I put to the Prime Minister back in October: the majority of EU and NATO countries are refusing to deploy their troops to Helmand province. Does the Secretary of State agree that, if those countries are refusing to help to rid the world of terrorism and are adding to the overstretch of the British armed forces, they should at least fund the operations that we are putting forward?
