BAGHDAD – The American Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice arrived in Baghdad today, Thursday, for a visit that was not previously announced. During this visit, Rice will hold talks with her Iraqi counterpart Hoshyar Zebari, head of the coalition government Nuri al-Maliki, and others dealing with the latest developments in the situation in Iraq; particularly, the status of the security convention to be signed between the two sides, the obstacles that impede this signing, and how to overcome these difficulties.
It is noteworthy that this convention is not welcome in numerous circles of Iraq, where there agreement is seen as imposing restrictions on Iraq in politics, economics, security, and other areas not announced. These are included in secret supplements and are not accepted in most cases.
This did not rule out some serious attempts by the American minister to try intervening to solve many of the problems raised by the issue of Kirkuk between Iraqi parties who discussed the tense crisis situations in Iraq.
