STATEMENT BY GOVERNOR BILL CLINTON ON THE SITUATION IN IRAQ
July 23, 1992
The refusal of Saddam Hussein to allow United Nations
inspectors access to documents concerning Iraq's program to build
weapons of mass destruction is a serious violation of the cease-
fire agreements.
Saddam's action places at risk not only efforts to dismantle
Iraq's capacity to produce such weapons but the authority of the
United Nations itself.
This is not the only example of Saddam's defiance of the
U.N. and its resolutions. Iraq maintains its economic embargo
against the Kurds; refuses to accept demarcation by the U.N. of
its border with Kuwait; and U.N. personnel in Iraq are subject to
increasing harassment.
Let there be no mistake: if the United Nations decides to
use force to ensure Iraqi compliance with the cease-fire
agreements, I will support American participation in such action.
Let Saddam Hussein make no mistake: even during an election
campaign, Americans are united on this issue. Saddam Hussein
should understand clearly that we will not tolerate his defiance
of U.N. resolutions.
