    WRITTEN QUESTION E-1717/99

    by Lucio Manisco (GUE/NGL) and Armando Cossutta (GUE/NGL) to the Council

    (30 September 1999)

    Subject: Bombing of the Iraqi population

    For months now the United States and British air forces have been bombing Iraq and the rest of the world has looked on with indifference. No resolution by the UN or any other international organisation provides support for such action, which has caused death and destruction among the civilian population.

    Does the Council agree with the statement made by the spokesman at the UN for the French Government, which states that we must reiterate our deep disquiet about the unwarranted continuation of these increasingly severe bombing raids whose purpose is not clear to us?

    Reply

    (2 December 1999)

    The Council is deeply concerned about the serious situation in Iraq.

    It considers lasting security and stability in the region as well as the living conditions of the Iraqi people to be the prime considerations for the UN Secrurity Council in reaching an agreement on Iraq.
