Powell led six weeks of intense U.S. lobbying and worked the
phones from the early hours Wednesday. When he launched his final
diplomatic blitz, U.S. officials were concerned the resolution might
get only the minimum nine “yes” votes needed for adoption.
A day earlier, France, Russia and Germany failed to persuade the
United States to include in the resolution a timetable for restoring
Iraq’s sovereignty. Instead, the draft calls for the U.S.-appointed Iraqi
Governing Council — in cooperating with the coalition and aU.N,
representative — to provide the Security Council by Dec. 15 with a
timetable for drafting a new constitution and holding elections.
The resolution makes clear that the U.S.-led occupation of Iraq is
temporary and states that “the day when Iraqis govern themselves
must come quickly.” It urges the U.S.-led Coalition Provisioual
Authority now running the country to let Iraqis govern the country
“as soon as practicable.”
