For your info - this from a friend at the German Paliament. best, f. Felicity, Joachim Guilliard is very good. He is the main force behind trying to get a campaign against sanctions off the ground here in Germany. This message is in response to a request from von Sponek who is invited to speak at the EU-Parla. Von Sponek is asking that more critics of the sanctions policy are present in the audience at the hearing particularly to put the US speaker under pressure with his topic USA, HOW TO BRING ABOUT CHANGES IN IRAQ. -------- Original Message -------- Betreff: Europa Parlament - Hearing zum Irak Datum: Sat, 17 Feb 2001 16:02:38 +0100 Von: Joachim.Guilliard@t-online.de (Joachim Guilliard) intern\af\hearing\Irak-oj COMMITTEE ON FOREIGN AFFAIRS, HUMAN RIGHTS, COMMON SECURITY AND DEFENCE POLICY PUBLIC HEARING 'IRAQ AND THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY' Monday, 26 February 2001 3 p.m. 6.30 p.m. Room PHS 3C050 DRAFT PROGRAMME I.
