President Bush has made no decision yet on using military force against Iraq but the United States was positioning itself for whatever might be required, Secretary of State Colin Powell said on Sunday.
Powell added the United States was awaiting the findings of the United Nations arms inspectors working in Iraq. "I think that this can't go on indefinitely," Powell said on NBC's "Meet the Press" program.
"The president has not made a decision yet with respect to the use of military force or with respect to going back to the United Nations," he said. "It's a situation of course we're monitoring closely and of course we're positioning ourselves -- positioning our military forces for whatever might be required." (Albawaba.com)
