Mr. Speaker, as was alluded to, it is not only a Middle East situation but also a situation that concerns the people in Canada.
My question is more on the diplomatic side.
The member for Ottawa Centre alluded to the U.S. and the Russians dealing with it using a diplomatic approach. On the UN side, one would think the UN could do a lot more on the situation. With our position at the UN now, to an extent we have taken a second seat to it. My question is this: what more could the UN do, and with our position now, have we compromised how much we can push forward on a UN solution to this situation?
