BAGHDAD, Iraq — U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan met with Iraqi leaders to call for reconciliation ahead of upcoming elections, his first visit to the country since the U.S. invasion.
Annan arrived in Baghdad on Saturday and met with Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari, Deputy Prime Minister Rowsh Shaways, former Prime Minister Ayad Allawi, political and community leaders as well as U.N. staff.
“Reconciliation is absolutely vital in Iraq,” Annan said, adding that the U.N. supported all efforts to bring peace to the country.
Annan’s visit follows similar visits by British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw on Thursday and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on Friday. Both Rice and Straw said they wanted to encourage participation in parliamentary elections scheduled for Dec. 15.
