US faults Iraqi dossier: Arab Reaction
"Syria said it was boycotting the Security Council talks on the Iraqi declaration in protest at receiving an edited, 3,500-page copy. It said it wanted the full version that was given to the five permanent Council members.

"Iraqi Vice President Taha Yassin Ramadan said Baghdad would ?make clarifications? if necessary on its arms dossier. ?I can reassure you the report is complete,? he told French RFI radio in a recorded interview through an interpreter. ?If need be, Iraq is ready to make clarifications. Iraq has no arms of mass destruction. I think the United States is well placed to know this in the first place but the United States is looking for a pretext for an attack,? he said. Every people and every nation has the right to defend itself through all possible means, Ramadan warned."
