New York, 16 February 2005 – Secretary-General's Press Encounter on his way to the Security Council Meeting on Iraq<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

…<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Q:<\/span> There has been an announcement about a common front, a joint front, between Iran and Syria. Do you read this as directed against Iraq or against Lebanon? And are you worried to what it might lead, to consequences? <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

SG:<\/span> I need to look at the details of that announcement. We are monitoring developments there very, very closely, as you can imagine. So I would not want to comment in detail on that. <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Q:<\/span> Is it worrisome that there is such an announcement of a common front? <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

SG:<\/span> I think I won't (inaudible) what was said.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

…<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Q:<\/span> What are you going to do on the team, on the Lebanon report? What's your first step? <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

SG:<\/span> We are studying the Security Council request very carefully, in order to begin taking prompt action. But I am not in a position to go into details. <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Q:<\/span> How prompt? When should we expect the first step? <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

SG:<\/span> I would hope in the course of the week. <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Q:<\/span> [The] course of a week? It will take a week before you take the first step? <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

SG:<\/span> In the course of a week.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

…<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Q:<\/span> Middle East envoy, are you ready to announce that? Do you have anything? <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

SG:<\/span> Kieran is working on that for me – Kieran Prendergast.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
