PM and President come to terms over presence in Iraq?

On Sunday Presidential Minister Michał Kamiński announced in an interview that the President will not sign a motion concerning the withdrawal of the army until October 2008. The media played on the issue, but yesterday it seems as though the government and the President finally reached an agreement. Defense Minister Bogdan Klich and the head of the National Security Bureau (BBN) Władysław Stasiak met to discuss this problem yesterday. "The final decision concerning the date has not been made yet, as first the President will receive a motion which will be accepted by the government. There is no conflict," said Stasiak after the meeting. It seems that the whole issue was caused by Kamiński who uttered his words before he had consulted them with President Kaczyński. The formal decision concerning the withdrawal of the army will be made by the Cabinet today. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A3; Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 5; Dziennik, p. 6) A.K.
