Proceeding contribution from John Baron (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Libya (London Conference).

Libya (London Conference)

Some of us remain of the view that the west's intervention is as much about regime change as it is about humanitarian aid. Will the Foreign Secretary make absolutely clear whether it is the Government's view that UN Security Council resolution 1973 would allow a no-fly zone, in effect, to follow the rebels should they wish to attack Tripoli, and also allow the west's fighter planes to hit Gaddafi's ground forces in Tripoli if that were to be the case?
