Proceeding contribution from Lord Hammond of Runnymede (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 10 September 2014. It occurred during Debate on Ukraine, Middle East, North Africa and Security.
Ukraine, Middle East, North Africa and Security
The hon. Gentleman is absolutely right. We are clear that ISIL is a threat to us as well as to stability in the region. But we are equally clear that we can contribute to defeating ISIL only through the leadership of the Iraqi Government in Baghdad, and they have to be an Iraqi Government who are credible, inclusive, and command the respect and support of all the people of Iraq. A huge burden therefore rests on the shoulders of Dr al-Abadi as he embarks on this mission with his new Government. We wish him well and will offer him every practical support we can.
