United Nations completes food and humanitarian supply distribution in Iraq
Iraq, Local, 7/7/1997
A United Nations coordinator said in Baghdad on July 5 that his agency had completed its part of a plan to distribute food and humanitarian supplies in Iraq and was waiting for Iraqi officials to complete their work.
"Our part of the job is done," said the UN coordinator of humanitarian affairs, Staffan de Mistura, referring to the oil-for-food deal with Iraq. "The ball is now in the court of Iraq."
Mistura said his teams had completed a plan for the distribution of food and supplies to Kurdish-controlled areas in northern Iraq and that it was up to Iraqi officials submit a plan for delivery in rest of the country. Both plans would be combined and then submitted to UN secretary general Koufi Annan for final approval, he added.
