MilitiaMan: Looks like the timing of this UN meeting is very interesting ~ MM
Sounds like they are definately going to have discussions on the files to release Iraq from
Chapter VII starting tomorrow, however, I notice they use wording
that they are also to discuss the possibility of issuing a briefing in light of the UNAMI report.
It almost, sounds like they are having a little brinkmanship going on with respect to the final decision.
Will they want them to have an assurance they will have or even have had an exchange rate agreement to show that they are going to go fully international once the decision is made. I wonder if there is a Tit for Tat going on.
The language makes me think it is possible. imo Using the word possibility, leaves it open imo.. Interesting. ~ MM
