DOHA, Feb 24 2003 (IPS)

Iraqi Foreign Minister Naji Sabri said today that his country had asked for the postponement of the Arab summit due to convene March 1, to March 14.

He said the Iraqi desire was meant to give more time to replying to UNMOVIC questions raised to Iraq.

Sabri, in an interview with Al Jazeerah TV, expressed hope that the Non-Aligned Summit which started in the Malaysian capital today would express NAM member states peoples’ ambition in rejecting war and colonial hegemony as well as looking forward to peace and stability.

Sabri is taking part as member of Iraq’s delegation to the Non Aligned Summit.
