Negroponte: New NIE to be delivered to Congress next week
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Deputy Secretary of State-designate and former National Intelligence Director John Negroponte told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Tuesday that the new National Intelligence Estimate on Iraq will be delivered to Congress "first thing next week -- by Monday at the latest."
"I want the NIE to speak for itself, but what I would like to say is that my belief that success in Iraq remains possible is based on my experience in dealing with Iraq as U.S. ambassador to the U.N. and ambassador to Iraq and as director of national intelligence," Negroponte added. "And I don't think I'm at variance with the intelligence community in my judgments." -- CNN Congressional Producer Ted Barrett
