USA AND IRAQ

Early day motion 1622, tabled 15 July 2002 by Harry Cohen (Labour). Signed by 47 members.

That this House notes the suggestion of Mikhail Gorbachev, at a meeting with parliamentarians on 10th July, that the United States and Iraq should attempt to resolve their differences by direct discussions between representatives of both their countries rather than resort to war; and considers that the United Kingdom Government should adopt this proposal as its official policy and that an offer of a venue in London for such talks should be made to both sides.

Signatures by party: Labour 39, Liberal Democrat 3, Labour/Co-operative 2, Plaid Cymru 2, Scottish National Party 1.
