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


Libya (London Conference)

I would defy the hon. Gentleman to find any action taken by the coalition that is not in line with the UN Security Council resolutions. Everything we have done is in line with those resolutions. That was endorsed by everybody at the conference yesterday, and that will remain the case. The extreme care being taken to avoid civilian casualties is very clear, and a great contrast to the behaviour of the Gaddafi regime. It is important that we constantly underline these points in order to get that message across to the wider world, as well as in our own country, and the Government will continue to do so.
