Pelosi Statement on Libya's Pledge to Eliminate Its WMD Programs

Washington, D.C. -- House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement on the announcement late this afternoon by President Bush that Libya has acknowledged its nuclear and chemical weapons programs and has agreed to eliminate them:

"Libya’s pledge to dismantle its weapons of mass destruction programs is welcome news. Libya has taken steps over the last few years to improve its international standing, including taking responsibility for the 1988 bombing of a Pan Am passenger jet over Lockerbie, Scotland. If Libya follows through on its commitment to dismantle its weapons programs and rejects terrorism, it would be on its way to joining the circle of civilized nations."
