Iraq reveals uranium information
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) — Iraq
on Monday revealed an exten
sive, secret program for the man
ufacture of enriched uranium
that could be used to make nu
clear bombs, the United Nations
said.
Dimitri Perricos, chief inspec
tor of the U.N. nuclear inspec
tion team, said the Iraqis had
handed over a list that showed
Iraq has long been in violation of
the Nuclear Non-Proliferation
Treaty to which it is a signatory.
The list also appeared to con
firm that Iraq has been violating
terms of a U.N. Security Council
resolution that ended the Per
sian Gulf War. Late last month.
President Bush had warned of
military action against Iraqi nu
clear facilities if Iraq refused to
comply with the resolution.
"We understand that ... Sad
dam Hussein's government ad
mits Iraq was engaged in a nu
clear weapons program contrary
to previous repeated denials of
the Iraqi government," said State
Department spokeswoman Mar
garet Tutwiler in Washington.
Iraqi officials had never pre
viously disclosed they had ura
nium-enrichment material and
had flatly denied they had a nu
clear weapons program.
A statement issued from
Vienna by the International
Atomic Energy Agency said an
initial examination of the list "in
dicates the existence of three
parallel programs for uranium-
enrichment related equipment
and facilities."
Perricos told reporters in
Baghdad that the list accounted
for only a pound of slightly en
riched uranium. According to an
Iraqi defector who reportedly
has provided informahon to the
U.N. Sanctions Committee, Iraq
actually had about 88 pounds or
highly enriched uranium.
It is believed that about 55
pounds would be necessary to
build a nuclear bomb.
