The Dutch can leave Iraq

According to RIA Novosti, citing the Netherlands Information Agency of the Anp, during a visit to the United States, the Prime Minister of the Netherlands, Yan Peter Balkenende did not make any assurances to US President George Bush regarding the further stay of Dutch military personnel in Iraq.

Before the departure of the Dutch prime minister in the United States, members of the Netherlands parliament recommended that he not give Bush any promises about the extension of the deadline for the presence of Dutch troops in Iraq. While the Cabinet of Ministers of the Netherlands is inclined to extend the mission of the Dutch military in Iraq, many parliamentarians are in doubt about this.

Recall that after the socialists came to the power of Spain, Iraq will leave the Spanish contingent.
