§ Mr. AdleyTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on British relations with Lebanon.
§ Mr. WaldegraveWe will continue to give strong support to President Hrawi and the legitimate government of Lebanon. This is a time for reconciliation not recrimination. Following General Aoun's surrender we look for early and substantial progress on the basis of the Taif agreement towards a fully sovereign, independent Lebanon, free of foreign troops and armed militias.
