Talabani ready to be a witness in Anfal trial
(Al-Adala)
President Jalal Talabani said he would appear as a
witness in the Anfal trial if he was asked to do so.
This trial of Saddam will enhance Iraqi unity and
improve relations between Arabs and Kurds. He said
that the reconciliation plan was moving ahead and
that many political players supported it, including
what he described as the "resistance". The president
said negotiations were underway between
parliamentary deputies to spread security and
stability.
