Iraq will not deal with any new UN Security Council resolutions imposed on it, an official spokesman said on Saturday in Baghdad after President Saddam Hussein chaired a meeting of senior officials.

"Iraq will not deal with any new UN Security Council resolutions that will impose new conditions beyond existing ones," the officialIraqi News Agency quoted the spokesman as saying.

Iraqi Foreign Minister Naji Sabri said on Monday in an official letter addressed to UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan that his government is ready to accept the UN weapons inspectors unconditionally.

But the United States has voiced skepticism about Iraq's true intentions and continued to seek a new Security Council resolution on Iraq's disarmament.

US President George W. Bush has repeatedly accused Iraq of pursuing weapons of mass destruction and supporting terrorists by providing them with such weapons and vowed to achieve a "regime change" in Iraq with all the tools at his disposal, including military actions.
