Need help with the United Nations Security Council for my history homework
On 3 August 1990, the United Nations Security Council passed Resolution 600 condemning the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait and demanding that Iraq unconditionally withdraw all forces deployed in Kuwait. After a series of failed negotiations between major world powers and Iraq, President George H.W. Bush conducted a one way negotiation, in front of the full support of Congress and the Senate, stating the requirements for a peaceful resolution to the invasion. Please watch the terms of the negotiation as presented in the video.
Watch the video mentioned in Chapter 1 of the text titled, “President George H.W. Bush – Address Before Congress on Iraq”, (6m 03s), located at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ll_GjnDCbjk.
