New York, Mar 02: A report from UN weapons inspectors to be released today says they now believe there were no weapons of mass destruction of any significance in Iraq after 1994, according to two UN diplomats who have seen the document, USA Today reported in today’s editions. The historical review of inspections in Iraq is the first outside study to confirm the recent conclusion by David Kay, the former US chief inspector, that Iraq had no banned weapons before last year's U.S-led invasion. It also goes further than prewar UN reports, which said no weapons had been found but noted that Iraq had not fully accounted for weapons it was known to have had at the end of the Gulf War in 1991, the paper added.
The report, to be outlined to the U.N. Security Council as early as Friday, is based on information gathered over more than seven years of U.N. inspections in Iraq before the 2003 war, plus postwar findings discussed publicly by Kay, USA Today reported.

The study, a quarterly report on Iraq from U.N. inspectors, says that U.S. teams' inability to find any weapons after the war mirrors the experience of U.N. inspectors who searched there from November 2002 until March 2003, USA Today reported.
