Bremer reviews situation

BAGHDAD MAY 18 . The top U.S. official in Iraq, L. Paul Bremer, had a meeting on Sunday with an American-installed city council in the volatile city of Mosul and surveyed the challenges he faced in getting that ethnically volatile part of the country moving once again.

In Baghdad, where the U.S. efforts to restore security have encountered obstacles and complaints, the military said its efforts to put Iraqi police back on the track were working: A survey of the capital's 43 police stations by the Coalition Force found 86 per cent of the 8,200-strong police force was back on the job. Mr. Bremer met on Sunday behind closed doors with Mosul's council.
