Proceeding contribution from Geoffrey Clifton-Brown (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 6 November 2008. It occurred during Topical debate on Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Democratic Republic of the Congo
The humanitarian aid that the Minister has announced and consolidated today is highly welcome, but does he agree that it has to be backed up by a political process? If the political process does not move forward, will he and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office work very closely with the new American Administration, because, as my hon. Friend the Member for Mid-Norfolk (Mr. Simpson) said, by passing the Act in 2006, President-elect Obama has already shown his commitment to progress towards a solution in the DRC?
