HC Deb 12 June 1992 vol 209 cc325-6W
Mr. Wigley

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will seek support for a United Nations intervention if the Serbian Government continue with their arms build-up threatening Kosovo; and if he will support the principle of self-determination of the people of Kosovo.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

A recent CSCE mission found no evidence of increased military tension in Kosovo. We are committed to the ten principles of the Helsinki Final Act, including those of equal rights and self determination of peoples, and we condemn the Serbian Government's oppression in Kosovo. This problem, and others in the former Yugoslavia are being addressed not in the United Nations but in Lord Carrington's conference. We fully support Lord Carrington's efforts. All parties must negotiate in his conference in good faith.
