Seanad debates

Friday, 21 March 2003

The reports delivered by Dr. Blix to the Security Council were disturbing and raised a number of serious questions. In particular, he conveyed that Iraq had not come to a genuine acceptance of disarmament and was not co-operating satisfactorily on substance. Dr. Blix set out a series of areas where the Iraqi declaration on its weapons programmes was incomplete or remains unsubstantiated. The Iraqis were known to be in possession of well-documented quantities of weapons. Where are those weapons now? Dr. Blix has made it clear that, as of now, the sums do not add up. Instead, there are glaring discrepancies.
