Proceeding contribution from Lord Strathclyde (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 24 October 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

My Lords, I do not know whether he is still alive but, on the basis that he is, our role would be to stick to UN Security Council Resolution 1973 and to protect civilians in Libya. We would certainly expect the Libyan regime—the NTC—to work within the rule of law; and if he were arrested he should be brought to trial so that we could find the answers to these questions.
