Press Gaggle 05/22/06
— Monday, May 22, 2006 — Q With a unified unity government now in place, what are the chances that American troops will start pulling out before the end of this year? MR. SNOW: Well, once again, it's all conditions-based. You don't simply say because you have a government you pull out. The President has been pretty clear, troops will return when they're no longer needed. And it is still our desire to see that the Iraqi military and police forces are trained up and capable of providing for public security in Iraq. Q But you have seven months ahead, so is the seven months enough time to just -- my question is, what is your assessment, I guess, of what Iraq is going to do in the next seven months, if you're not willing to say that seven months is enough time to begin pulling troops out? MR. SNOW: Well, if you can tell me exactly what's going to happen in the next seven months, I'll give you an answer.
