U.N. Poised to Vote on Proposal for Postwar Iraq

The United States is expected to push for a U.N. Security Council vote this week on a resolution for rebuilding Iraq. The measure is expected to pass, although Russia, France and China have expressed reservations. At issue are control of the country's oil industry and the role the United States and Britain will play in governing postwar Iraq. Hear United Nations Under-Secretary General Shashi Tharoor.
