Iraq submits report on weapons program test for UN compliance
Iraq hands in what it calls a comprehensive WMD program report to the United Nations Security Council, while a U N expert questions its completeness. Dimintri Perricos notes Baghdad also delivered about 14 ounces of enriched uranium and withheld details on nuclear fuel purchases and centrifuges, maintaining a skeptical stance on full disclosure. The council keeps sanctions until Iraq destroys its weapons program, amid prior IAEA accusations of hiding radioactive material.
