Iraqi Leader: 2 Years Enough for Security

06/27/2005

LONDON (AP) - Iraqi Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari said Monday that two years would be “more than enough” to establish security in his country.

Following talks with British Prime Minister Tony Blair, al-Jaafari said factors such as building up Iraq’s own security forces, controlling its porous borders and pushing ahead with the political process would all play a part.

“I think two years will be enough, and more than enough, to establish security in our country,” al-Jaafari told a news conference.
