if. really you believe this insight. from. the future. you with r.t. live from moscow store recapping our top stories washington may have finally killed the man who was the main reason behind a ten year long war in afghanistan but it's doing little to silence the critics who say the operation is stuck fast in a quagmire. moscow once again sees the new u.s. plans for parts of. romania poses no threat to its own deterrent that's coming as russia and nato are in the middle of talks over missile defense and. pressure nato
6:31 am
airstrikes hit the libyan capital overnight but there is still little sign of progress for any side in the conflict and complaining more talk about coalition ground troops going in experts say the move could it spike the death toll enormously. now if you hear an hour to you we are discussing the possibility of an all out war and we're doing so with a british member of parliament one of the few who voted against taking action to stick with us. today i'm talking to john barron m.p. who is one of only thirteen members of parliament they say it's against the military intervention in libya compared to five hundred fifty seven for america thanks for talking to our now why very soon game number of concerns a number of questions that remain unanswered one seem to be meddling in the affairs of another was in the course of the rich was one country not recalled intention has
6:32 am
not been good in recent years secondly why. the arabs themselves of course in the no fly zone are not particular given the concealing the capability for decades thirdly why does with such a policy leap wildly doing something similar in say the yemen or bahrain or finding what is the exit strategy we simply don't know if you feel that you achieved something by voting against the intervention was it a pointless move it away oh no it's not a pointless you know functioning as you see fit that's why i'm here at the end of the day we're here to listen when we are here to listen to the views of government and others but you have to vote as you see fit and now you are a member of a party that is your king abdullah currently bellicosity gung ho as did at the height of its power essentially how do you feel about that now well they would argue the conservative party that. they acted within the un mandate a un resolution which is a little different to what for example the previous government did when they went
6:33 am
into iraq. so there is a legitimate sic there but that doesn't necessarily make it right decision i felt it was not the right decision as we've previously discussed and what do you make of the un security council resolution is it floored well i think we must always remember with these resolutions that not everybody is happy to sign up to them for example brazil russia india china germany all have stationed this resolution did not have universal backing and it wasn't for the british and french in particular i don't think there would have been one as strongly worded as it was this resolution has then become baen's have to shape beyond all recognition really hasn't it i think there are real questions being raised i mean the reason for going in was concerned about the civilians in benghazi it was a humanitarian ticket if you like and that was a valid concern whether it was a valid justification for intervention of a reason but what seems becoming apparent is that we now have the no fly zone in
6:34 am
effect becoming the air force of the rebel fighters. and theoretically this air force can provide cover all the way to tripoli and i question whether that was within the spirit of the was a mission as it was originally to find and how do you feel about what haig and you pay have done to this resolution well you know at the end of the day i think it was for me anyway a reason to be obvious that this was more than just about humanitarian aid i think there was no limit to regime change about this and so it has not come as a surprise to me what we have seen for happen since the resolution was passed so he's coming out of this worst you think the government in this country or the u.n. security council as a whole i think you'd have to analyze probably you know i think it was there all party to an ill defined thought through mission which has no clear exit strategy. and meanwhile civilian casualties mount. you know there is
6:35 am
a contradiction to this policy and one we all value human life but at the end of the day if we are being consistent and what we should be doing is talking about a no fly zone for the yemen for bahrain you could have argued for the ivory coast. there is an inconsistency in this policy and i certainly think for example that the arabs themselves let's take egypt for example perfectly placed could call for a no fly zone was in a very good position to put one in and perhaps they should answer a peace map put forward by the african union was rejected by the rebels because it didn't include making it back in his family leave libya how much support do you think there is for ousting its athlete outside benghazi washington and london i think it's very mixed i think you can see that by the fact that there are very few ground attack craft fighters being committed by the of the u.n. mission. and i think that's very telling. i think and there's no shortage of come.
6:36 am
willing to put in fighter aircraft which would be all that would be needed to instigate a no fly zone but when it comes to ground attack aircraft i think very few nations have put that forward and i think that tells its own story as you said earlier this is another military intervention in another muslim country with natural resources have we learned nothing from our past mistakes well you know as you know i voted against the iraq war i voted against afghanistan when we had the opportunity to vote and i think we have got to be very careful before you commit troops to battle . you've got to make sure you've got one of the high ground you've got to make sure that it is the measure of last resort where all other avenues of negotiations have been exhausted and i'm not sure we met those criteria when it came to libya as well so i think the lesson still need to be learned and i'm afraid we're repeating past mistakes and you see any progress in terms of learning lessons from the past well i
6:37 am
see some progress you will have seen the prime ministers talk to the kuwaiti parliament and this year you will have seen the foreign secretary has agreed to review on its policy after every questioning in the foreign affairs select committee these are small positives and i do believe to a certain extent british foreign policy may be at a crossroads and which and so you've got to become more ethical and more honest i let's talk about that i mean you say that the prime minister greatest speech that the parliament of that great but that was a part of the trip which was essentially to hawk arms around the middle east when the trouble had already started or was that a serious error in judgment i mean is does that is he the right man to lead the country when it comes to the issue of the armed services i think it does though he'd rather illustrate the fact that you know there is a bit of a contradiction in british foreign policy at the moment and i think that is being recognised by the government which is why we've had this announcement recently that
6:38 am
there is going to be review sales selling organs. to a country for purposes of national purpose i think a legitimate selling arms control weapons for crowd control weapons i should say to autocrats and at the same time preach the mucker city to many will smack of hypocrisy and you can only preach about democracy in my view from the moral high ground you're not just a member of parliament you're also a former soldier what are people saying off the record in westminster do you think the troops will be deployed on the ground was that in fact the plan all along no idea why that i don't think it was the plan all along to i think most people would say no that would be a step too far we had assurances right from the beginning of the no ground troops committed and as far as we're concerned many of us would hold the government to account if it changed its mind but we also had assurances that they wouldn't directly target that i didn't read anything that wasn't part of the un security council resolution well it was all they because this is where the if you like the
6:39 am
vagueness of the resolution kicks in because it does talk about and forcing a no fly zone and protecting civilians and using all necessary measures to implement that policy you could theoretically offer you that in the story makers improves attacking the mold and control center in tripoli is the beautiful but i still am of the view that this was about regime change as much as about humanitarian aid but if you could argue that why couldn't you argue that sending ground troops is part of all that's the same as i mean it seemed such a powerful and and all encompassing for a while because i think the majority of people in this place who voted for the intervention and i respect that you did so warmly assumption that this was about humanitarian aid and nothing more and that it had the legitimacy of the un resolution ground troops and i think that would clearly go beyond that resolution. you as i say you force in northern ireland what's difficulties do you think that
6:40 am
treats work based going into the middle of a civil war i don't think we have to discuss that scenario that hypothetical scenario because i really don't see it happening i think they would be up in this country if we committed murders the u.k. was instrumental in get aphids rehabilitation do you think that cameron and hague zeal for war in libya is in attendance to make up for the fact that the u.k. was complicit with a dictator but this is a question you have to ask then i can only view the situation as i see it i'm going to accordingly i mean for all the reasons we've discussed i think this was the wrong intervention i suggest you put that question to the prime minister and the foreign secretary and finally is this the war for oil i don't go i think it's more a pout i think the humanitarian aid is definitely there are some reason but i think it's also about regime change in a good effort was becoming a political you have the same scenario because. it's yemen bahrain could all change syria why aren't we talking about you know intervention or the no fly zone was
6:41 am
there i think it's largely because you know there was to some extent becoming uncomputable numbers not necessarily the west despite. approaches from claims to the contrary in the period leading up to the intervention and there was no going that's there to the west maybe well maybe i mean we i don't think we'll ever know the answer to that question i mean i'm sure there are negotiations at various levels about and ratter but all we can do is parliamentarians take a step back acknowledge that there's probably a lot of negotiations we're not aware of but judge the situation on the facts that we have in front of us and olmos facts whether it's the fact we don't have an exit strategy whether we're not sure where this policy would lead whether it's the fact that you know once again are intervening and why couldn't the arabs and done this and they have the capability to do so those are all factors that help me to. decision that this was the wrong direction and like you very much.
