Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence

Situation in Syria: Discussion

9:00 am

Mr. Robin Yassin-Kassab:

I will start with the last. It was unfortunate because I honestly was not referring to the members of this committee. It should have been better phased as "if one believes". My point was not a dig at the committee. I was simply saying even if we forget about Syria, we need to consider these matters because they are in the interests of the people here in Europe.
