Iraq to make weapons declaration
Iraq says it will give the United Nations a report on its weapons of mass destruction on December 7 -- one day ahead of the deadline set by the U.N. Hussam Mohammed Amin, head of the Iraqi National Monitoring Directorate told reporters: "We are going to deliver this declaration in the proper time on the seventh of this month and the people here, the UNMOVIC and IAEA, will take this declaration to New York and Vienna." U.S. President George Bush has insisted Baghdad must supply a "credible and complete" list of its nuclear, biological and chemical weapons by Sunday -- the December 8 deadline set by U.N. Security Council Resolution 1441 giving Baghdad one last chance to disarm or face war. But Amin declared: "We are a country devoid of weapons of mass destruction. This fact is known to all countries including the United States of America and Britain and all those concerned." "And they have the intelligence to disprove it." Posted by: Fred Pruitt 2002-12-03 |
