Iraq: No Relations with Israel Before Mideast Settlement
Iraqi interim prime minister Iyad Allawi says his government will not normalize relations with Israel before other Arab states do as part of a Middle East settlement. Speaking during a visit to Lebanon Monday, Mr. Allawi said Iraq's future relations with Israel will be determined by two issues, "international resolutions and a just and comprehensive peace." Mr. Allawi also rejected as "totally false" reports that Israeli intelligence agents were operating out of Iraq.
The Iraqi prime minister said his country and its territory will not be a base for any action hostile to any Arab nation.
