UN Secretary General Kofi Annan will next week make an official recommendation to the Security Council that sovereignty in Iraq be restored quickly to the Iraqi people, according to a report.

In the report, which will be presented to the United Nations Security Council on Tuesday, Annan says: "It is important that Iraqis are able to see a clear timetable leading to the full restoration of sovereignty."

"There is a pressing need to set out a clear and specific sequence of events leading to the end of military occupation."

"The principal message" is that "democracy could not be imposed from outside" and that it must originate inside Iraq, Annan said in the report, viewed by reporters today.

4. Wouldn't restoring Iraqs sovereignty have to include restoring Iraqs last

legitimate and recognized government back into power? And if not, just who would you restore Iraqs sovereignty too? Anyone who wants it maybe? Or the first Ayatollah with an AK-47? I am confused here.
