PRESS BRIEFING BY JOE LOCKHART
The James S. Brady Press Briefing Room
1:35 P.M. EDT
Q: Joe, Yemen has just announced they're going to do a flight to
Baghdad. They're the fourth country now to flout the sanctions on
Iraq. What's your reaction to that?
MR. LOCKHART: Well, I think we have expressed some concern over what
the Russian flight and a French flight. That work is done within the
context of the sanctions committee at the U.N. I know there was a
Jordanian flight, and my understanding is that was approved through
the U.N. with prior consultation. I haven't seen anything on Yemen and
whether they've worked with the council as far as this, and whether
this is something that's approved or not.
