Clinton to be U.N. tsunami envoy, sources say
EFL Secretary-General Kofi Annan has selected former U.S. President Clinton to be the U.N. point man for tsunami relief and reconstruction, U.N. diplomats said Tuesday. Annan wants to appoint a special envoy not only to focus on the cleanup and reconstruction but to try to make progress on resolving conflicts with rebels in the two worst-hit countries — Indonesia and Sri Lanka, Eckhard said. Ironically, the report surfaced as The Associated Press obtained a letter by former Sen. Jesse Helms in which he predicts Clinton will try to become the next U.N. secretary-general.Posted by: trailing wife 2005-02-01 |
