Proceeding contribution from Malcolm Rifkind (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 19 July 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Zimbabwe.
Zimbabwe
The Minister is not being particularly helpful on this matter. On 15 July, The Sunday Times reported:"““Gordon Brown will refuse to attend a forthcoming summit of European Union and African leaders in Lisbon if Zimbabwe’s President Robert Mugabe is invited.””" The House is seeking confirmation from the Minister not only that the Prime Minister will refuse to attend the summit if Mugabe is invited, but that so will the Foreign Secretary and all other British Ministers.
