GOVERNMENT FORMATION


1. (U) The Slovak Ministry of Foreign Affairs released the
following statement on Iraq,s formation of a national
government on May 23. The original text is available in
Slovak at www.mzv.sk:

BEGIN UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION:

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) and the Government of
the Slovak Republic happily welcomed the news of the
successful completion of the process of forming a united
national government of the Iraqi Republic, and congratulates
the Iraqi legislative body on the achievement of this
important success.

The Slovak Republic believes that the creation of a new
government built on a consensus of the Iraqi political
spectrum will be a strong inspiration for a change in the
behavior of previous opponents of renewing security and of
the reconstruction of the country. After many years of
instability and fear of large-scale political crisis, as well
as civil and religious unrest, the Iraqi citizens have
finally earned a fair chance for a better future.

The Slovak Republic will continue doing its share to maintain
a secure situation and post-war renewal of the country until
the time that the democratically elected government of the
country deems necessary.

END UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION.
