Iraqi Ministries Expand Leadership
Iraq Fact of the Day
The first group of deputy ministers -- 28 in all, including six
women -- has assumed office in 14 Iraqi ministries. This talented group
of professionals, educated in Iraq and abroad, includes seven with PhDs
in areas as diverse as agriculture, political science, electrical
engineering, and paleontology. They will be responsible for the
ministries' daily functions and will help ensure a smooth transition to
full sovereignty.
