The European Commission announced that it was to provide €30 million for the preparation of forthcoming elections in Iraq bringing the total made available from the Community Budget for Iraq’s historic votes in 2005 to €80 million. This made the European Commission the major international donor to the elections and constitutional referendum, which were the milestones of the current political transition. International support for the elections and referendum have chiefly been supplied through the United Nations window of the International Reconstruction Fund Facility for Iraq, in line with the role assigned to the UN by UN Security Council Resolution 1546. |
