President Saddam Hussein stressed that Iraqis would defend their country by all available means so as to maintain its independence. The President impressed on real US motives of targetting Iraq that is rich in its oil and natural resources.
He also commented on Chile’s delegate in the UN when she asked to specify several weeks as a limited time to Iraq to achieve disarming weapons of mass destruction. The President criticized the Chilean proposal and inquired how can the weapons be destroyed with limited time.
“The Chilean officials either do not understand the case or they mean to perturb the public opinion when they hear that there still weapons of mass destruction in Iraq,” President Hussein said.
The President criticised the US sponsoring to the Zionist entity and increasing their weaponry.
“At the time the US destroys other states weapons, they increase producing their weaponry what is happening in the Zionist entity,” President added.
This has come during President Hussein’s meetings with commanders of military units.
Present at the audience were member of Iraq’s Command of the Arab Ba’th Socialist Party (ABSP), Supervisor of the Republican Guards Qusay Saddam Hussein and Defence Minister Gen. Sultan Hashim Ahmed.
