"Mr President, Baroness Ashton, I would like to ask you not to let all the speeches calling either directly or indirectly for military intervention make too much of an impression on you. It is significant that none of these Members mentioned how many soldiers would be provided by Spain, Poland, the United Kingdom and all the other speakers’ countries for house-to-house fighting, which is what would be facing these troops in Syria. They also failed to say how much military equipment would be needed and what costs these countries would incur, some of which are currently in the process of making use of the rescue package. No one has said anything about who should pay for all of this.
This is highly characteristic of the entire debate. Furthermore, no one has referred to the fact that Syria is not on the Hindu Kush and that a war or an open military conflict in Syria would have quite different effects on the neighbouring regions, in particular, on Israel and Palestine, than is the case in Afghanistan. This is all simply warmongering and I would ask you not to take it too much to heart."@en1
