HL Deb 08 May 1996 vol 572 c11WA
Lord Kennet

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What is their attitude to the occupation of part of Lebanon by Israeli forces.

Baroness Chalker of Wallasey

We fully support UN Security Council Resolution 425. We call for the withdrawal of all foreign troops from Lebanon, as envisaged in the Taif Agreement of 1989. We believe that the Middle East Peace Process provides the best chance for a lasting settlement in the region, and will continue to work actively in support of it.
