U-N resolution over Iraq in doubt
Monday,October6,2003,4:40 AM

United Nations-AP -- The United States is looking for new ideas to get other countries involved in the reconstruction of Iraq.

That after United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan threw a proposed resolution into doubt when he reportedly ruled out a U-N political role as long as U-S and British forces are running Iraq.

Annan wants the U-S to hand over sovereignty to an Iraqi provisional government within the next three-to-five months. But the U-S is rejecting that recommendation. It's sticking instead to its agenda of having the U-S-picked Iraqi Governing Council adopt a constitution, hopefully in six months, then hold elections, perhaps six months later, and relinquish power only when an elected government is installed.

The U-N Security Council is expected to meet today to discuss the U-S draft.
