Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Ms. Prasow, for being here today and sharing your views with us. It's really much appreciated.
According to Mr. Gavin Buchan, who was here last week, and other Department of Foreign Affairs officials, the decision to transfer prisoners detained by Canadian Forces to Afghan authorities was necessary because Canada is not an occupying force and is in Afghanistan at the request of the democratically elected Government of Afghanistan, assisting it to fight what is essentially a civil war.
Do you agree with this analysis of the Canadian government's decision to transfer prisoners to Afghan authorities?
