At the United Nations, France appears set to give in to the United States and vote for the Iraq resolution before the Security Council. A unanimous vote on the resolution is expected later today. The U.S. maintains it is giving Iraq full sovereignty, but under the UN resolution the US will keep its troops in Iraq and will have full say over military operations. France dropped its demand that the Iraqi government be given veto power over US operations. Responding to the French concerns the US agreed to cooperate with the Iraqi government on “sensitive offensive operations.”
