Proceeding contribution from Lord Strathclyde (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 21 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Libya.
Libya
My Lords, different countries take different decisions at different times. No country voted against the Security Council resolution; 10 out of 15 voted in favour, and only nine votes were required for it to be carried. Events as they unfold demonstrate that it was right to take military action over the course of the weekend and to protect civilians on the ground.
