Proceeding contribution from Andy Slaughter (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 4 April 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Africa and the Middle East.


Africa and the Middle East

On Friday, the Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz reported that the Foreign Secretary, with French and German support, intends to propose the recognition of a Palestinian state on 1967 borders, with Jerusalem as its capital, at the next Quartet meeting in two weeks. Is that true? If so, I commend that positive step, but ask him not to get sucked into the issue of land swaps and to maintain the right of return for refugees.
