UN Chief: The US will not act wisely if it attacks Iraq

The UN has joined the list of countries which oppose the American threats to direct a military strike to Iraq as the UN secretary general Kofi Annan stressed that the US will behave unwisely if it will launch a military attack against Iraq.

Annan told journalists following his talks with the British Prime minister Tony Blair in London that he does not believe that the US President George Bush had taken a decision to strike Iraq.

Replying to a question on that reports said that Bush is studying the idea of expanding the campaign of war against terrorism to include Iraq, Annan said that he does not think that Washington has taken any decision to this effect, stressing that any action against Iraq will be unwise.
