Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Corbyn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 7 July 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Afghanistan.


Afghanistan

This October will be the ninth anniversary of the deployment of British troops into Afghanistan, 300 of whom have died. Thousands of Afghan people have also died, and the war has spread over into Pakistan and is in danger of spreading into other countries as well. What on earth would the Secretary of State say constitutes victory in Afghanistan, before the withdrawal inevitably takes place?
