| Iraq hands over documents after 'detailed' discussions |
| 2003-02-09 |
| Iraq has handed over more documents to chief weapons inspectors during a second round of crucial disarmament talks in Baghdad, a United Nations source said. Hans Blix, in charge of a hunt for chemical, biological and ballistic weapons, and Mohamed ElBaradei, head of the UN nuclear watchdog, met for two-and-a-half hours of talks with an Iraqi monitoring team led by presidential adviser Amer al-Saadi. Dr Blix and Dr ElBaradei were handed documents relating to the nuclear field, a UN source said, adding that discussions focused on chemical and biological weapons. "The discussions were very detailed," the source said. That means they had to tell the Iraqis exactly what they wanted an explanation of. That, and that alone, would be discussed. Sammy's boyz still aren't disarming... He said documents would be assessed in coming days. "It is too early to judge" the significance of the documents, he said. |
