Description | Iraq's justice minister has accused the US of concealing information about deposed president Saddam Hussein that could be damaging to "many countries".
Abdel Hussein Shandal said it seemed there were "lots of secrets" that the Americans wanted to hide.
Saddam Hussein is set to go on trial in Iraq over alleged crimes against humanity, but no date has been set.
US officials are said to have privately warned against rushing into a trial until Iraq has a satisfactory judicial system - one of the main topics to be discussed at the Brussels conference.
The US is also believed to be worried about holding a trial before a new constitution is written and while there is still so much violence. |
