Bremer Expected to Meet Soon at White House
Iraq’s U.S. governor Paul Bremer has arrived in Washington and is expected to meet soon with top officials at the White House for what is likely to be a decision-making session, a U.S. official said on Tuesday. "When decisions need to be made, Bremer comes. Some decisions need to be made," the official told Reuters, saying he presumed the issues dealt with security and the political transition in Iraq. The official said there was no expectation Bremer would be leaving his post. But another U.S. official recently told Reuters there is growing friction between Bremer and Washington, particularly over Bremer’s resistance to accelerating the transfer of control from Americans to Iraqis. Bremer left Baghdad for Washington at short notice and canceled a meeting on Tuesday with visiting Polish Prime Minister Leszek Miller, the Polish delegation in Baghdad said.
Speculation: Bremer has received an instruction that he doesn’t agree with, or he read Old Patriot’s suggestion yesterday and likes the idea...
