Report of visit to Brussels on 4-5 November 2004 by Iraq's interim Prime Minister, Iyad Allawi. The purpose of the visit was to press the European Union to increase its aid effort, and Mr Allawi urged 'spectators' of the war to get involved in the reconstruction effort - remarks which caused offence to French President Jacques Chirac.
