Proceeding contribution from Bob Stewart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 July 2016. It occurred during Ministerial statement on NATO Warsaw Summit.
NATO Warsaw Summit
Let me say to my right hon. Friend how delighted I am that we have reaffirmed our commitment to the NATO alliance by sending the strong signal of using our troops on the ground in Estonia and Poland. Further, I thank him for making arrangements for French and Danish troops to join our battle group in Estonia. I speak as perhaps the only British officer to have commanded the 1st Parachute Battalion of the French Foreign Legion—albeit briefly.
