Wolfowitz Hints At Resignation Deal

Wolfowitz Hints At Resignation Deal

Mr. Wolfowitz's hint that he might be receptive to a deal was in the last paragraph of the seven-page statement released by the office of his lawyer, Robert S. Bennett, shortly after the bank president read it in a private session at the World Bank headquarters in Washington. At the end of the day, Mr. Wolfowitz sent it by e-mail to bank employees.

"Only when the cloud of these unfair and untrue charges is removed, will it be truly possible to determine objectively whether I can be an effective leader of the World Bank," Mr. Wolfowitz said, in what was widely seen at the bank as an indication he would consider resigning.
