Syria agrees to allow UN investigators to question officials

Syria agreed Friday to allow U.N. investigators to question its officials over Rafik Hariri's assassination in Vienna, ending a deadlock with the United Nations that had brought mounting pressure on Damascus.

Syrian Deputy Foreign Minister Walid Moallem told a news conference that the breakthrough came after Syria received "guarantees concerning the rights of the individuals" and assurances that Syrian sovereignty would be respected.

A U.N. commission mandated by the Security Council is investigating the death of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, who was killed with 20 other people in a massive truck bombing in Beirut on February 14. The commission, headed by German prosecutor Detlev Mehlis, issued an interim report last month that implicated Syrian and Lebanese intelligence services.

"The (Syrian) leadership has decided to inform Mehlis that it accepts his suggestion, as a compromise, that the venue to listen to the five Syrian officials be the U.N. headquarters in Vienna," Moallem said. He added Syria would soon contact the commission to work out dates for the hearings.

The agreement was welcomed by Mehlis, U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan, and the U.S. ambassador to the world body, John Bolton, who earlier this week accused Syria of "delaying and obstructing" the investigation.

Syria said on Friday it would allow U.N. investigators to quiz five officials at the U.N. offices in Vienna in connection with the killing of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri.

Bolton said Syria's move was a direct result of the "unambiguous, unanimous decision of the Security Council," which had given Mehlis the power to question suspects at a location and under conditions of his choice.

Syria received Mehlis' request to interview the officials on November 6, but objected to Beirut as the venue. On Thursday, Syrian Foreign Minister Farouk al-Sharaa criticized Mehlis for rejecting Syria's proposals for an alternative venue.

Syria claimed its officials would not be safe in Beirut. It is believed that Syria was worried that Mehlis could secure the arrest of the officials after a hearing in Lebanon. Lebanon has detained several other suspects at Mehlis' request.
