Some quotes on Iraq
The Economist says: “A body which thinks that ’serious consequences’ spells ‘more inspectors’ does not deserve to be taken seriously.”
Hans Blix reported that: “At the meeting in Baghdad on the 8th and the 9th of February, the Iraqi side addressed some of the important outstanding disarmament issues and gave us a number of papers…. Although no new evidence was provided in the papers and no open issues were closed through them or the expert discussions, the presentation of the papers could be indicative of a more active attitude focusing on the important open issues.”
