Iraq may reveal arms secrets

Iraq appears poised to give the United Nations answers to repeated questions about its weapons programmes, Reuter reports from Baghdad. 'I have been informed about the answers. I have not received them yet,' said Rolf Ekeus, chairman of the UN Special Commission implementing the Gulf war ceasefire terms. An Iraqi source said officials had been given the go-ahead to pass on information. 'Just half an hour ago, everything was settled by higher Iraqi authorities,' he said. The UN is seeking a complete list of Iraq's suppliers of nuclear and chemical weapons technology.
