Proceeding contribution from Hilary Benn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 April 2017. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Syria and North Korea.
Syria and North Korea
In the light of the American Vice-President’s current visit to the region to consult, one hopes, South Korea and Japan, among others, on the most effective way of containing North Korea’s nuclear ambitions, and reflecting on the Foreign Secretary’s own experience at the recent G7 summit, does he think that there is the potential for further economic sanctions directed at Pyongyang? Does he think that China would fully support such a step?
