Proceeding contribution from Julian Brazier (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 29 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Africa and the Middle East.


Africa and the Middle East

Does my right hon. Friend agree that, despite a generation of occupation by Syria and series of bloody incursions by Israel, Lebanon remains a potential force for good, with its developed civic society and its entrepreneurial spirit? Does he further agree that one of the best ways to break the ambitions of the Tehran-Damascus axis is by fostering and encouraging democratic elements in Lebanon and weaning them away from Hezbollah and the Damascus agenda?
