Proceeding contribution from Geraint Davies (Labour) 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

Colonel Gaddafi intends to fight to the death, and the Libyan people are sick to death of killing each other. In accordance with resolution 1973, will the Secretary of State at least consider a ceasefire during which an election can occur, internationally supervised by the Arab League, with a fall-back position of resumed conflict if intimidation and violence corrupt the outcome, in order to get an elected Government in Libya instead of another unelected regime, with hundreds of thousands more people being killed in the mean time?
