The lessons and legacy of UNSCOM: an interview with Ambassador Richard Butler

Article Abstract:

Ambassador Richard Butler was the chief arms inspector in Iraq acting on behalf of the United Nations. The United Nations no longer conducts weapons inspections in Iraq and Butler believes that Iraq has been stockpiling missiles and has been working on chemical weapons since the inspections teams left. He also thinks that it has been moving its expertise abroad to protect its weapons development programme. Butler thinks that the UN should not make laws that it is incapable of enforcing.
