Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what plans they have to discuss with the governments of (1) the United States of America, (2) France, (3) Germany, (4) Italy, (5) Australia, (6) Canada, (7) India, (8) Austria, and (9) Russia, the possible creation of an international force to tackle Islamic extremism wherever it occurs in the world, including elements of those countries' armed, intelligence and police forces.
In addition to our efforts in the UN, EU and other multilateral fora to tackle Islamist extremism, the UK is a leading member of the Global Coalition of over 60 countries to defeat the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). The Global Coalition’s efforts include cutting off ISIL finance, reducing the influx of fighters, supporting governments and civil society to challenge extremist ideology, and stabilising areas liberated from ISIL control.
