White House says Hayden won't talk about interrogation techniques




Associated Press - December 11, 2007 1:13 PM ET

WHITE HOUSE (AP) - The White House says Congress won't learn about CIA interrogation techniques from agency director Michael Hayden during two days of questioning.

Hayden is due to appear today and tomorrow before congressional panels about the destruction of videotapes of terror suspect interrogations.

White House press secretary Dana Perino says the CIA interrogation program approved by the president is safe, tough, effective and legal. She adds that Hayden won't talk about techniques and "explain to the enemy" what the U.S. is doing.

Hayden told CIA employees last week that the CIA taped the interrogations of 2 alleged terrorists in 2002.

Hayden says Congress was notified in 2003 both of the tapes' existence and the agency's intent to destroy them.
