Oil conflict of interest

"Galbraith’s partner was the Yemenite multi-millionaire Shahir Abd al-Haqq, whose identity was revealed by the same newspaper earlier this month. DN has published documents from Porcupine showing Galbraith’s personal signature, and today’s reports are complete with paparazzi photographs of Galbraith literally running away from reporters as they confront him in Bergen, where he is currently staying with his Norwegian wife. He refused to give any comment citing potential legal complications." That is why I refused to hail him about his resignation from his UN vote in Afghanistan. He has a horrible record on Middle East issues. And he has none of his father's erudition, charm, and intelligence. (thanks Hassan)
