Proceeding contribution from Rory Stewart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 28 February 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Libya and the Middle East.


Libya and the Middle East

Libya is a wake-up call that Afghanistan is not the only country that matters in the world. It shows that we have not had a balanced, moderate foreign policy. Does the Prime Minister agree that this is a reason to accelerate the draw-down of resources from Afghanistan, so that we can meet the many crises in the world, of which Libya is one, that will confront us over the next decade?
