DAMMAM, 12 April 2003 – Saudi investors may be willing to invest in Iraq provided there is a legitimate government in place. Khalid Al-Bawardi, chairman of Bawardi group, told Al-Watan newspaper: “Saudi businessmen cannot cooperate with any party not recognized by the Saudi government. We have the capability to participate in the rebuilding process in Iraq. But there must be a legitimate government to organize these projects.”
