Proceeding contribution from John Bercow (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 June 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on G8 Summit.


G8 Summit

I welcome the Prime Minister’s candid exchange with President Putin. Does he agree that the abuse of human rights in Chechnya, the sale last year of more than $34 million worth of arms to the murderous tyranny in Sudan and the use of the veto to stop concrete action against the brutal military dictatorship in Burma are an additional three good reasons why President Putin is not yet greeted with the uncritical acclaim of the international community that he apparently expects?
