Exiled Iraqi ally Allawi picked as prime minister
The Iraqi Governing Council chose Iyad Allawi a Shiite exiled former security figure to head the interim government. The decision, supported by the United States and UN envoy Brahimi, aims to form a cabinet by June 30 with elections promised by Jan. 31. Allawi’s ties to the United States and CIA drew concern, but council members pressed for a strong security chief to handle ongoing violence.
