The honourable Member is aware of the conclusions of the Copenhagen European Council on Iraq.
As you know, the UN has been carrying out weapons inspections in Iraq under Resolution 1441 since 27 November. The whole point of this resolution is to give Iraq a chance to disarm peaceably. I repeat what the President-in-Office of the Council said yesterday, that war is not inevitable. The key to a peaceful settlement lies in the proper implementation of Resolution 1441 and, more to the point, in active cooperation with the UN inspectors on the part of Saddam Hussein.
The next stage in this procedure will be 27 January, when the head of the Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission, Hans Blix, and the director of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Dr El Baradei, submit a report containing their evaluation of Iraq’s declaration about its weapons of mass destruction to the Security Council. The UN Security Council is still the main forum for resolving the Iraqi issue."@en1
