Proceeding contribution from Lord Hamilton of Epsom (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 27 October 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Afghanistan.


Afghanistan

My Lords, can my noble friend confirm that the northern tribes in Afghanistan are getting extremely nervous about the talks with the Taliban? That of course means that the Pashtuns are being brought into the peace process and they are the people against whom, not very long ago, the northern people were involved in a very serious civil war, supported by the West.
