Proceeding contribution from Ed Davey (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 26 January 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Horn of Africa.

Horn of Africa

Absolutely. There is great force to that argument. I am not trying to take sides with the Eritreans or the Ethiopians; I am just pointing out the complexity of the matter. As always in such disputes, a blame game is going on. In those circumstances, often external figures—from the UN, the AU or individuals—can play a role. I hope that the Minister will give us some indication of Foreign Office thinking on whether that is something it will be pushing for.
