Proceeding contribution from Tom Brake (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Friday, 18 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on UN Security Council Resolution (Libya).


UN Security Council Resolution (Libya)

The Prime Minister has made a credible and convincing case for joint action to protect Libyan civilians whose lives are threatened by Gaddafi, a despot with a record of international terrorism and internal terror. However, there is a significant risk of stalemate if a no-fly zone can be established in time and Gaddafi's air force and helicopters are grounded. Can the Prime Minister say which organisations or nations have indicated that they would be willing to play a part in breaking such a stalemate if indeed it arises?
