Oil-for-food deal in jeopardy
UN inspectors monitoring imports to Iraq under the
oil-for-food deal have been withdrawn from the country,
jeopardising the entire agreement.
The head of the program said the company that pays the
fifty-four inspectors, Lloyds Register, had pulled out its
employees without consulting the UN.
A UN spokesman said it put the entire agreement in
jeopardy.
