Proceeding contribution from Shailesh Vara (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 14 January 2010. It occurred during Topical debate on Afghanistan.


Afghanistan

The Foreign Secretary is most generous, and I shall be brief. Will he assure me that he will use the conference as an opportunity to encourage the majority of our coalition partners to do more in the effort against the Taliban in Afghanistan? Although a small number of coalition countries are being active and helpful, the vast majority could do more, particularly on the provision of front-line forces.
