BUT HIS EYES SAY YES...
MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia warned the United States on Monday that using force against Iraq would undermine stability in the region and complicate chances of settling the Iraqi issue.

Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov, speaking at a news conference alongside his Iraqi counterpart, said Russia had no evidence that Iraq posed any threat to U.S. security.

Ivanov said Russia challenged statements by some U.S. officials that there was no alternative to a military solution.

"We have not found a single well-founded argument in these statements demonstrating that Iraq represents a threat to U.S. national security," he said. "These statements are political in nature."
