Iraq's interim PM signs emergency security law
Iraq’s interim prime minister has signed a long-anticipated law that gives him the authority to impose emergency measures to safeguard the country’s security, an official in his office said today.
Interim Prime Minister Iyad Allawi and his government have delayed the announcement of the law designed to combat Iraq’s violent insurgency on several occasions. A news conference to announce the final draft of the law is set for later today.
