Proceeding contribution from Laura Kyrke-Smith (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 March 2026. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Middle East.
Middle East
I thank the Prime Minister for his statement and his clarity on our adherence to international law. From Somalia to Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya, history shows us that military interventions do not always lead to peaceful political transitions and often have wider regional and global repercussions. Can the Prime Minister reassure me that his focus will be on encouraging a peaceful transition for the people of Iran and de-escalating the situation regionally and globally?
