25Jan04-Reuters-Iraq weapons report should be taken seriously: Annan United Nations secretary-general Kofi Annan has said a statement by the outgoing chief US arms hunter Dr David Kay that Iraq had no stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction should be taken seriously. Dr Kay resigned on Friday, saying he had concluded that Iraq did not have stockpiles of biological and chemical weapons, a finding that could embarrass President George W Bush abroad and help his election-year Democratic rivals at home. Mr Annan told reporters that Dr Kay, who led a fruitless hunt for illegal weapons after the US-led invasion of Iraq last year, was credible. "He's an experienced inspector, he had worked with the UN before and he has also taken on this thing. And I think his report and what he says should be taken seriously," Mr Annan said. The UN Security Council did not approve military action in Iraq because the United States failed to convince a majority of members of an imminent threat from Iraqi weapons of mass destruction. UN weapons inspectors left Baghdad last March, shortly before the war, saying President Saddam Hussein's government had not given full answers to their questions. -- Reuters abc.net.au
