LONDON (Reuters) – The chairman
of a British public inquiry into the Iraq War that has been running for
seven years said on Thursday he expected to publish his report
mid-2016, prompting Prime Minister David Cameron to urge him to speed up
the process.
The inquiry aims to shed light on every aspect of
Britain’s involvement with Iraq from 2001 to 2009, from the build-up to
the U.S.-led invasion in 2003 to the withdrawal of combat troops, and to
identify lessons that can be learnt.
The Iraq War, and in particular the role of former Labour
Prime Minister Tony Blair in leading the nation into it, are still live
political issues in Britain and the inquiry has come under repeated
criticism from lawmakers and relatives of those killed over how long it
has taken.
