BAGHDAD — US senator Hillary Clinton, wife of former president Bill Clinton, is expected in Baghdad today, a source at the US embassy said yesterday.
The source said the five-member delegation would hold talks with Iraqi government officials and members of the national assembly, whose make up was confirmed on Thursday by the electoral commission.
Heading the US delegation is John McCain, the Republican senator for Arizona and one-time rival of US President George W. Bush. McCain has been critical of the US administration’s policies in Iraq since the March 2003 invasion.
The delegation also includes senators Russel Feingold, Susan Collins and Lindsey Graham.
