Q: [concerning the formation of the multinational force for Afghanistan]

SG: They [the Afghan parties] have invited the UN to come in: they agreed on it in Bonn, and Mr. Brahimi has had good discussions in Kabul. And I think they are welcome and they will help create a secure environment for our activities and the establishment of a new government on the ground. We are not going to impose anything on anybody, but to help ensure that constructive activities can be carried out.*****
