Richardson on the Middle East

New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson (D) discusses his solution to the situation in Iraq in this campaign video of his remarks at the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) Winter Meeting in February.

“We have a moral responsibility to bring the Sunni and Shia together in a national reconciliation conference,” Richardson says. “And we have a strategic interest in organizing a regional conference with all of Iraq’s neighbors: Saudi Arabia, Egypt, NATO. But also include Syria and Iran to help stabilize Iraq.”
