Proceeding contribution from Lord Hague of Richmond (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 May 2011. It occurred during Debate on Middle East, North Africa, Afghanistan and Pakistan.


Middle East, North Africa, Afghanistan and Pakistan

My hon. Friend can certainly be assured that we will stay within the scope of the UN resolution, with legal advice, but he must bear in mind that as the situation changes, what is targeted and the methods necessary to achieve our objectives will sometimes have to change. It would not be effective to say that we are only ever going to target the same things. Many different parts of the apparatus of the regime in Libya that are engaged in prosecuting a war against its own civilians have not actually been targeted yet.
