The European Commission deeply regrets the decision of the United States to exclude countries that did not participate in the war in Iraq from US reconstruction contracts. The Commission feels this decision is difficult to accept and unjustified and, furthermore, is a political mistake because it sends an unhelpful signal at a time when the international community is constructively working to make Iraq an open, transparent, democratic and prosperous country.
