Proceeding contribution from Meg Munn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 June 2014. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq and Ending Sexual Violence in Conflict.
Iraq and Ending Sexual Violence in Conflict
The recent advance of ISIS—the Islamic State in Iraq and al-Sham—might have been a shock, but the reality is that hundreds of people have been dying in terrorist attacks in Baghdad and other parts of Iraq for many months. That is a result of the breakdown of the situation and the civil war in Syria. The signal given last summer by this House, and by the United States and the international community, created the space into which ISIS has now pushed forward. What is going to change, and how is the international community going to turn this round?
