A delegation led by Baghdad Mayor Adnan Abed Hamed arrived in the Belarusian capital on 4 March at the invitation of Minsk city officials.
Hamed told a meeting with representatives of the Minsk City Executive Council on 5 March that the development of relations with Belarus is a cardinal trend in Iraqi foreign policy that is supported by President Saddam Hussein. Hamed said Baghdad's water supply and sewage system are outdated and pose serious problems. Minsk Mayor Mikhail Paulau reportedly assured his Iraqi guests that the Belarusian capital can dispatch specialists to assist the introduction of new technologies for Iraq's urban infrastructure.
