Britain Rejects Claims on Iraq War
Britain on Thursday rejected a claim by U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan that the U.S.-led Iraq war was "illegal" because Washington and its coalition allies never got Security Council backing for the invasion. Prime Minister Tony Blair's official spokesman, speaking on condition of anonymity, reminded reporters that Britain's attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, had found before the war that Britain was acting legally, citing three U.N. resolutions justified the use of force against Iraq.Posted by: Fred 2004-09-16 |
