resolution to the Securilf
Council on Monday declam!
that Saddam Hussein has
missed ''the final opportunity
to disarm peacefully and indi
cating he must now facetht

But France, Russia and
Germany, which oppose tht
military option, circulated an
alternative plan to pursue!
peaceful disarmament of Irag
through strengthened inspet-
tions over at least the nextfivt
months. They won immediatt
backing from China, despitf
Secretary of State Colin Powell's
lobbying efforts with top offh

The rival positions set tht
stage for a heated battle ove'
whether the council would
back the U.S. and British
demand for war now or tht
French, Russian, and German
call for war to be "a last resort-
Getting approval for the US-
backed resolution will be!
daunting task. To pass, the res
olution must have nine "yes
votes and avoid a veto by
France, Russia or China. Orly
Bulgaria is considered a strong
bet to support the U.S.-British-
Spanish plan.
