    Washington has confirmed it is drafting a fresh UN resolution on Iraq which could be ready for consideration by the Security Council within days.

    "We are working with our friends and allies to see if we can get a second resolution," President George W Bush said in Washington.

    But he repeated that UN backing, though useful, was not necessary.

    Washington's moves come as European leaders - who have been deeply divided over the issue of war - continue to argue about supporting America's hawkish stance.
