Proceeding contribution from Denis MacShane (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 26 May 2010. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Foreign Affairs and Defence.
Foreign Affairs and Defence
Does my right hon. Friend agree that the Kurds, who in other parts of that region have suffered terribly throughout almost all of our political and adult lives, now—at last—have in Iraq a degree of freedom, autonomy and control over their lives? That is very precious. Whatever else one says about that conflict, the Kurdish people of Iraq have emerged as the winners.
