Published: The statement by Ambassador
Abbas Khalaf came amid indications that
Russia, despite its strong support for the
post-Sept. 11 anti-terrorism coalition, is
maintaining or improving ties with Iran and
North Korea, which together with Iraq are the
countries President Bush has labeled the
"axis of evil."
Washington is trying to rally
support for a possible invasion of Iraq, which
the United States accuses of supporting
terrorism and of rebuilding its banned weapons
of mass destruction program, but many U.S.
allies are resisting the push. In accordance with Title 17 U.S.C. Section 107, any copyrighted work in this message is distributed under fair use without profit or payment for non-profit research and educational purposes only. [Ref. http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/17/107.shtml]
