An excerpt...
"President Bush will nominate Zalmay Khalilzad to be the U.S. envoy to the United Nations and veteran diplomat Ryan Crocker to replace him as ambassador to Iraq, the administration said Monday.
Both changes had been revealed in news reports last week.
"If confirmed, Ryan and Zal will have two of the hardest and most consequential jobs in the world," Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said announcing the changes. White House spokesman Tony Snow had confirmed the plans earlier Monday.
Khalilzad, who is Afghan born, has also served as ambassador to Afghanistan. He will replace John Bolton, who could not win Senate confirmation and resigned last month as his temporary appointment as U.N. ambassador was about to expire." |
