Press Release (2005)100 29 Aug. 2005 |
Statement
by the Secretary General I welcome the publication of Iraq's draft constitution. This marks a critical step toward a free, prosperous and democratic Iraq. Given Iraq's difficult history and political and security situation today, the draft constitution is a major achievement that synthesizes traditions of faith and principles of freedom and human rights. I call on all Iraqis to engage actively in the constitutional process and make an informed decision when they vote in the October 15 referendum. The Alliance remains committed to supporting the Iraqi people, through its training mission, as they make the transition from dictatorship to democracy. |
