"Mr President, on a point of order, I want to welcome the fact that we have decided to hold a debate this week on the continuing developments in relation to Iraq. It is clear that a peaceful outcome to the current crisis is still possible. Dr Hans Blix and Kofi Annan have made it clear that if they are given sufficient time and if they get full and active co-operation from the Iraqi authorities, then war can be avoided. There are therefore grave responsibilities on us all to persuade the Iraqi authorities to give this full and active co-operation. There is also a grave responsibility on us all to ensure we demonstrate that international law applies to us all, and not just to Iraq, and to ensure that the United Nations is given its full legitimacy in the current situation. I would appeal to the President of this Parliament and the Political Group leaders of this Parliament to issue a joint statement to the Iraqi authorities and the Member States this week, urging that Iraq co-operate fully and that we operate entirely through the United Nations, thereby ensuring that international law prevails."@en1
