German Chancellor Gerhard Schröder has said he is committed to finding a peaceful solution to the Iraqi conflict, along with France and Russia in a speech to the Bundestag, 13 February 2003. BBC analysis says that the speech may prove a turning point for Germany. It represents the first time since the Second World War that a German leader has formally announced a policy based on openly opposing the United States - and seeking to thwart it by building alliances with other states.
