| Annan: Iraq 'disaster' in Mideast
UNITED NATIONS - U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said Wednesday that most leaders in the Middle East believe the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq and its aftermath to be "a real disaster." Annan said the United States was now in the difficult position where "it cannot stay and it cannot leave."
He said the leaders he spoke to on his recent trip to the Middle East fell into two camps: Some believed the United States cannot walk away from Iraq, while others, such as Iran, said it should leave and they would help stabilize the country.
