NYT: At World Bank Meeting, Frustrations Boiled Over
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/25/washington/25wolfowitz.html?pagewanted=print
“Graeme Wheeler, the bank’s managing director, said at the meeting that the fight over whether Mr. Wolfowitz should stay on at the bank amounted to the ‘the biggest crisis in its history.’ He said it arose from a range of issues, including fears that Mr. Wolfowitz and his aides were trying to impose Bush administration ideas on family planning and climate change at the bank and worries over a possible conflict of interest in the bank’s hiring of a Washington law firm, Williams & Connolly, to investigate leaks. A partner at the firm had earlier negotiated Mr. Wolfowitz’s employment contract with the bank.”
Wow! This just gets more and more interesting!
