Sanctions Against Iraq

Sir, - I congratulate Niall Andrews MEP on his efforts to help the long-suffering Iraqi people

Sir, - I congratulate Niall Andrews MEP on his efforts to help the long-suffering Iraqi people. His initiative in organising a humanitarian flight is a much needed boost to the morale of the people of Baghdad.

For too long the Iraqi people have been made to pay the price for Saddam Hussein's aggressive moves and crimes against his neighbours. It should be remembered that before the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait this dictator was sponsored by the Western nations which now moralise and preside over the deaths of innocent children owing to lack of proper food and medical supplies.

European politicians should take the initiative and campaign strongly to end these sanctions. - Yours, etc.,
