Iraqi scientist confirms UN weapons claims. 17/09/2003. ABC News Online abc.net.au] Last Update: Wednesday, September 17, 2003. 12:07pm (AEST) Iraqi scientist confirms UN weapons claims An Iraqi scientist working under the new provisional government has confirmed United Nations claims made before the war that Iraq has not had any nuclear weapons program for more than a decade. Dr Albas Balassem is with Iraq's new ministry of science and technology and he says there was no way for Iraq to revive its nuclear program, because there was nothing left after strict UN inspections throughout the 1990s. United States officials had claimed before invading Iraq last March that Iraq had been looking for ways to revive its nuclear program, cut short by the first Gulf War in 1991, including a now discredited claim that Iraq had tried to buy uranium in Africa. abc.net.au Rascal @WesWing.com
