Proceeding contribution from Lord Harper (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 4 March 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on European Union (Amendment) Bill.
European Union (Amendment) Bill
I am perfectly prepared to accept that the present Polish Government have views about the European Union and the extent to which it is helpful to Poland's economic development—that is a matter for them—but I cannot leave unchallenged the hon. Gentleman's suggestion that the Soviet domination of Europe was brought down by the EU. I think it should be put on record that the strength of the Reagan Administration and NATO had quite a lot to do with it.
