Deliberations should be transparent, Senator Lugar says
At the Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing on “Negotiating a Long Term Relationship with Iraq,” Senator Dick Lugar (R-IN) says that they know Iraq presents and “extraordinarily complex environment” for U.S. troops. Future scenarios include things related to ethnic strife, competing militias, internal territorial disputes, terrorist attacks, foreign incursions, or even coup attempts. The legal issues, he says, are not a reason to avoid talks with the Iraqis, but it’s essential that the Administration be fully transparent about their intentions and deliberations. (0:36)
