Annan warns US as Iraq council addresses UN
Kofi Annan is hoping the UN will throw its support behind a US-picked Iraqi Governing Council as a first step toward ending the US occupation and handing control of the country over to the Iraqi people.
Four months after diplomacy fell apart inside the Security Council over war in Iraq, Mr Annan, his special envoy and members of the newly formed Iraqi group addressed the council yesterday and discussed both the high and low points of post-war life for Iraqis.
