Kofi Annan has stated the obvious, that full elections can't happen before the handover of Iraqi power in June, because Iraq is chaos right now and it would just be a bad idea to try to run an election in the midst of it.
I had zero doubt that that would be the conclusion, simply because the people at the UN aren't stupid. Still, the declaration is a bit like the end product of a commission sent to study what color the sky is.
