Proceeding contribution from Lord Stoddart of Swindon (Independent Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 28 November 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Middle East.
Middle East
My Lords, I join other noble Lords in welcoming the fact that the conference has taken place. I suggest, however, that a time limit might not be helpful in the long run. Is not the key to securing the co-operation of Hamas getting better relationships going with Iran? Iran needs to be brought in from the cold if we are to get a long-term Palestinian and Middle East settlement. Does the Minister have any indication that the United States in particular is prepared to make some moves towards getting Iran on board in a complete Middle East settlement?
