Halliburton Iraq ties more than Cheney said
http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2001/6/24/80648.shtml
UNITED NATIONS, June 23 (UPI) -- Halliburton Co., the oil company that
was headed by Vice President Dick Cheney, signed contracts with Iraq worth
$73 million through two subsidiaries while he was at its helm, the Washington
Post reported.
During last year's presidential campaign, Cheney said Halliburton did business
with Libya and Iran through foreign subsidiaries, but maintained he had
imposed a "firm policy" against trading with Iraq.
"Iraq's different," the Post quoted him as saying.
Oil industry executives and confidential U.N. records showed, however, that
Halliburton held stakes in two companies that signed contracts to sell more
than $73 million in oil production equipment and spare parts to Iraq while
Cheney was chairman and chief executive officer, the Post reported.
Two former senior executives of the Halliburton subsidiaries said they knew of
no policy against dealing with Iraq. One of them said he was certain Cheney
knew about the deals, though he had never spoken about them to the vice
president directly.
If he "was ever in a conversation or meeting where there was a question of
pursuing a project with someone in Iraq, he said, 'No,' " Mary Matalin,
Cheney's counselor, said.
"In a joint venture, he would not have reviewed all their existing contracts,"
Matalin told the Post. "The nature of those joint ventures was that they had a
separate governing structure, so he had no control over them."
The deal was legal, the Post said, and they showed how U.S. firms use foreign
subsidiaries and joint ventures to avoid doing business with Baghdad. The
practice is not a violation of U.S. law and falls within the U.N.-run
oil-for-food program.
The Post said U.N. records showed that the dealings were more extensive
than originally reported and than Cheney had acknowledged, however.
According to the report, the Halliburton subsidiaries, Dresser-Rand and
Ingersoll Dresser Pump Co., sold material to Baghdad through French
affiliates. The sales lasted from the first half of 1997 to the summer of 2000.
Cheney resigned from Halliburton in August.
"Halliburton and Ingersoll-Rand, as far as I know, had no official policy about
that, other than we would be in compliance with applicable U.S. and
international laws," said Cleive Dumas, who oversaw Ingersoll Dresser
Pump's business in the Middle East, including Iraq.
Cheney's spokeswoman, Juleanna Glover Weiss, referred the Post's calls to
Halliburton, which in turn, directed them back to Cheney's office.
In a July 30, 2000, interview on ABC-TV's "This Week," Cheney denied that
Halliburton or its subsidiaries traded with Baghdad. Three weeks later, on the
same program, he modified his response after being informed that a
Halliburton spokesman had said that Dresser Rand and Ingersoll Dresser
Pump traded with Iraq.
Cheney said he did not know the subsidiaries were doing business with the
Iraqi regime when Halliburton purchased Dresser Industries in September
1998.
The firms traded with Iraq for more than a year under Cheney, however. They
signed nearly $30 million in contracts before he sold Halliburton's 49 percent
stake in Ingersoll Dresser Pump Co. in December 1999 and its 51 percent
interest in Dresser Rand to Ingersoll-Rand in February 2000, the Post quoted
U.N. records as saying.
Cheney has long criticized of unilateral U.S. sanctions, which he says penalize
American companies. He has pushed for a review of policy toward Iraq, Iran
and Libya.
