Ex-Ambassador to Uzbekistan to speak in Cardiff
The Rebel MC | 12.10.2007 16:59
CRAIG MURRAY arrived in Uzbekistan in 2002 as a young ambassador with brilliant prospects, but he discovered that women were being raped and murdered by agents of the state and political prisoners tortured. When he revealed the UK government used confessions made under torture, the Foreign Officer sacked him: The Uzbek regime was a key ally in the "war against terror".
His bestselling memoirs - Murder in Samarkand are currently being made into a Hollywood movie starring STEVE COOGAN (Alan Partridge, Saxondale) as CRAIG MURRAY opposite ANGELINA JOLIE.
Craig will be joined by ANDREW MURRAY (no relation!), National Chair of the UK Stop the War Coalition to talk about the truth behind the 'war on terror' and British and American foreign policy in Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, the Middle East & Central Asia.
