"Mr President, we must not forget that the RUF is a vicious and brutal grouping. We should congratulate the British Government on taking effective action in a peace-keeping capacity. This is exactly the rapid reaction we are asking for within the European Union. I find Mr Markov’s remarks, in particular, slightly bizarre because we constantly need rapid-reaction forces to move in to preserve peace and prevent humanitarian disaster – exactly what has happened here. Clearly, we also realise that peace keeping can only be carried out by the operation of effective force. That is a lesson we have to learn if we are to have a rapid-reaction force within the European Union. The other thing we should learn from this is that the Lomé peace agreement was imposed from outside by outsiders and was totally unworkable. We should consider that lesson when we try to impose peace agreements in the future."@en1
