    Statement by Press Secretary Fitzwater on the Iraqi Statement on
    Withdrawal From Kuwait
    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.
