iraq, withdrawal

masbury says:

"Conditions" talk removed from agreement; re-named “agreement around the temporary presence of US forces in Iraq, its activities and its withdrawal timeline.” Can be less than 3 years, but cannot be more.

Iraq has demanded a clear commitment from the US that its forces will have
left its soil by the end of 2011.

The stance was revealed in a newly toughened-up version of a draft military
pact that could eventually see the US presence forced to make their exit
much sooner.
</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/iraq/article5032531.ece"><P>
With time fast running out to seal the deal, the Iraqi Cabinet today gave
Nouri al-Maliki, the Prime Minister, approval to submit a series of proposed
amendments to the US side for further negotiation.
</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/iraq/article5032531.ece"><P>
The changes would eliminate any possibility of the US military staying in the
country for more than another three years, according to the source. A
previous draft linked the pullout with security conditions on the ground,
raising the possibility of the US troop presence being extended.
</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/iraq/article5032531.ece"><P>
It will now be known as the “agreement around the temporary presence of US
forces in Iraq, its activities and its withdrawal timeline”, according to an
Iraqi source close to the matter.
