Les États-Unis avaient besoin d’un « accord » avec l’Irak pour rendre ce que les G.I.s et autres contractors ont volé dans les musées irakiens. Mais ça va prendre encore un peu de temps.

Baghdad reached an initial deal with the US on the return of more than 10,000 artifacts stolen from Iraq after the 2003 US-led invasion, a senior official said on Friday.
“We have reached an initial agreement... on returning more than 10,000 Iraqi artifacts that are in the United States,” by August 2014, senior ministry adviser Baha al-Mayahi told AFP.
But there are still details that need to be worked out, and the artifacts must all be registered in an electronic archive at Cornell University in the state of New York before they are returned, Mayahi said.
Et le plus beau :
The two sides agreed not to go into details about how the artifacts came to be in the United States, he added.
