Mr. Speaker, my colleague mentioned that the UN will broker a diplomatic and political solution to the situation.
I would like my colleague to talk about the contradiction in his speech. On the one hand, his government refuses to seek a seat at the UN Security Council, the most important international body with respect to conflict resolution. On the other hand, it refuses to accept its international responsibilities by pulling out of several treaties and taking positions that are roundly condemned by the international community.
How can they claim that the government will flex its diplomatic muscle when, in reality, the opposite is true?
