Annan's Special Adviser to Visit Washington on Iraq
The special adviser of United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan on postwar Iraq will travel to Washington on Monday at the invitation of the US State Department.

The State Department has invited Rafeeuddin Ahmed to Washington on Monday "for a series of briefings on Iraq, involving State Department, Defense Department and National Security Council personnel," UN spokesman Fred Eckhard said in a terse statement.

"Ahmed hopes to get a clearer picture of the coalition's thinking on post-conflict Iraq, as part of his ongoing work for the secretary-general," he said.

Former UN Under-Secretary-General Ahmed was appointed by the UN chief as his special adviser last Monday, whose role is to give advice on what is likely to happen in post-conflict Iraq and what the likely UN role will be in the war-battered country.
