Iraqi exiles return home to help rebuild Baghdad ministry posts
About 150 Iraqi professionals living in the United States and Europe volunteer to return, forming the Iraqi Reconstruction and Development Council. They will advise U.S. officials and act as cultural liaisons to restart ministries such as oil health industry and transportation. Paul Wolfowitz organized the effort, aiming to have ministries functioning and handed to an interim Iraqi authority. An accompanying meeting in Baghdad on Monday seeks Iraqi participation, with leaders from Kurdish and Iraqi National Congress groups invited, while some Shiite representatives may boycott.
