Iraq has admitted that it was developing biological warfare for offensive purposes before the Persian Gulf War.
Iraq said it would disclose all aspects of its program by the end of this month and that all the weapons have since been destroyed.
The Clinton administration said the admission was not enough to justify lifting economic sanctions the United Nations has imposed on the rogue nation.
“They haven’t done nearly enough to warrant the lifting of the sanctions by the U.N. and certainly, the U.S. will adhere to that position,” State Department spokesman Nicholas Burns said at a briefing here.
