Iraq Crisis: Statements (Resumed).
If there is a second clear resolution, I do not think we will have a huge problem, even though I share Senator Ó Murchú's concerns about undue pressure being put on the United Nations. It more or less implies that the United Nations must do the business or it is irrelevant. The United Nations must make its own decisions and this could be a difficult decision to make. As the Taoiseach observed, we could have a difficult judgment to make. If war was to break out without a second resolution, we would have to judge the situation perhaps with our EU partners but without the benefit of the UN.
