On the recordFebruary 23, 1998
Well, we'll do that at the proper time. The Secretary-General has asked to have the opportunity--and I think he's entitled to it--to present the memorandum of understanding to the Security Council before the rest of us comment on the details. And I think that he is entitled to that. He's worked very hard; he's had very little sleep in the last several days. And I'm going to honor his request to that. Thank you.
