Iraq - Saleh Says Law Will Deal With Straying Amer

(27 Mar 1995) T/I 10:26:06 STORY: MINISTER LOCATION: IRAQ DATE: 23 MARCH 1995 DURATION: 1.32 Saleh says law will deal with straying American pair Iraq on Thursday (23/3) allowed Western diplomats for the first time to visit two Americans detained after they strayed across the Kuwaiti border. The move strengthened indications that the pair would be charged with illegal entry, rather than released. An Iraqi government minister in Baghdad also made clear that the two would be dealt with by domestic law. The Americans, identified as David Daliberti, 41, and Bill Barloon, 39, are employees of American military contractors in Kuwait. At a news conference, Iraqi Trade Minister Mohammed Mehdi Saleh said the government had not decided what to do with the men, but noted: "We have laws in Iraq, as there are laws in the United States. They are safe, they are well-treated," Saleh added. But he appeared to link their fate to the U.N. sanctions imposed after Iraq's 1990 invasion of Kuwait. "Twenty million Iraqi people are in custody since five years ago," Saleh added. "They are hostages of the U.S. and British aggressive policies." Daliberti and Barloon were arrested on March 13th after they crossed from Kuwait while trying to visit friends, according to U.N. officials responsible for monitoring the Iraq-Kuwait border. Saleh also blamed the U.S. for a Turkish incursion into its Kurdish north and urged the withdrawal of Turkish troops and an end to patrols by Western warplanes over the region. "The situation has occurred due to U.S. interference in the region," Saleh said. SHOWS: (BAGHDAD, IRAQ 23/3) Minister in news conference. Iraqi Trade minister, Mehdi Saleh SOT: "I would say in the beginning that the 20 million Iraqi people are in custody since five years time. And they are hostage of United Nations, United States and Britain's aggressive policy. But the Iraqi people are treating those two Americans who crossed the border illegally in a very good manner, and their decision will be taken as our representative in the United States has mentioned in his speech to the United Nations." WS of news conference. Saleh SOT: "This (Turkish offensive) is an interference in our situation and Iraq has asked to withdraw the troops from our territory, but this situation has occurred due to the American enforcement in the region. If they didn't compose themselves in the Kurdish area, this situation wouldn't happen." Reporters taking notes.
