February 26, 1991
Saddam Hussein's radio statement last night contained the same diatribe as previous comments, with no commitment to complying with the 12 United Nations resolutions. His speech changes nothing. It does not annul the annexation of Kuwait or meet any of the coalition's other terms. The war goes on.
Note: The statement referred to President Saddam Hussein of Iraq.
