Humanitarian Issues in Post-War Iraq: Statements.
Amnesty International has produced a report on human rights in Iraq, an area we may have neglected because of the urgent need for security and humanitarian aid. The report makes a good point about the need for justice for hundreds of thousands of victims of state abuse and points out that, as we go about the reconstruction of Iraq, human rights must be a priority for any new government. I congratulate Amnesty International on its report, entitled Iraq: On whose Behalf? Reconstruction must ensure the human rights of Iraqis.
