In Yugoslavia, I'd asked for additional forces too. I even went to meet the French prime minister, and I proposed additional forces... Nobody wanted to send troops.

I have never been bribed as a Prime Minister.

I grew up thinking that if I wanted to go be prime minister, I could.

Yeah, well I'm not aspiring to be the Prime Minister.

We got involved in the Rwanda peace process for the simple reason that there was a decision which was taken by the Security Council, because the troops were in Uganda, and we decided to have a military presence.

I was really quite geeky at school. At one point, I wanted to be prime minister or a mathematician.
