23. SOUNDBITE (English) Hiro Ueki, UN weapons inspectors' spokesman:
"As I have been emphasising over and over again, when our inspectors go out on inspections they ask a lot of questions, of those who are responsible for the management of the facilities. Our inspectors have an extensive knowledge of those sites, of the people involved so whenever they have an opportunity they do ask a lot of questions about personnel and equipment. But as far as those private interviews are concerned all I can say is preparations are
underway, we are looking at various modalities, particularly for those who might wish to leave this country."

Iraq's Deputy Prime Minister on Monday accused America of wanting to attack Iraq in a bid to wage war on the entire Arab world.
Tariq Aziz claimed that the United States were preparing its military and media to wage war against Iraq but that the US agenda targeted all of the Gulf region.
Meanwhile UN inspectors on Monday visited what Iraq claims is a rebuilt baby milk factory, bombed by US-led forces
during the Gulf War because it allegedly housed a biological weapons plant.
The milk factory director, Youssef Nouri Taher, said on Monday that inspectors had asked about raw materials and the production process.
Iraqi officials said UNSCOM weapons inspectors, the predecessors of the current group, sealed machinery in the plant in the mid 1990s. The officials said the plant is not now producing milk but would be able to if the machinery was unsealed.
A second weapons inspection team visited the Al-Betar biological and chemical centre in the Taji region, 20kilometres (12 miles) north of Baghdad.
The inspectors, wearing chemical suits, toured the factory and took samples before leaving.
In the Iraqi capital a spokesman for the UN inspectors, Hiro Ueki, said that the inspectors were questioning senior employees at the sites they were visiting.
He added that the UN team were continuing preparations for conducting private interviews with Iraqi scientists but he declined to give further details.
At a religious summit in Kirkuk, northern Iraq, Islamic leaders called on Muslims to fight US-led forces if they invade the country.
