--- Quote ---[Pledges `Expeditious' Ruling on Wolfowitz James G. Neuger and Christopher Swann

April 13 (Bloomberg) --        World Bank directors pledged a speedy decision on President Paul Wolfowitz's fate after finding that Wolfowitz personally dictated the terms of a promotion and pay raise for a woman with whom he had an intimate relationship.

``The Ethics Committee, including its chairman, had not been involved in the discussions with the concerned staff member,'' the bank's executive directors said in a statement in Washington early today. The directors ``will move expeditiously to reach a conclusion on possible actions to take.''

Wolfowitz yesterday apologized for his role in promoting and arranging a salary increase for the staffer, Shaha Riza, and said he would accept whatever ``remedies'' are proposed by the international lender's board.

Calls of ``resign, resign'' resounded through the World Bank's atrium yesterday when Wolfowitz, 63, addressed employee representatives. Staff Association head Alison Cave said it was the first time the group had called for a bank president to go.

Wolfowitz sent a memo to the bank's personnel manager ``directing him to reach an agreement with the staff member and specifying in detail the terms and conditions,'' the directors' statement said.

Wolfowitz, an aide to then U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld in the runup to the        Iraq war, was named to the World Bank post by        President George W. Bush in 2005.

White House Support

Bush retains confidence in the World Bank president, White House spokeswoman Dana Perino told reporters at a briefing today.

``Yes, the president has confidence in Paul Wolfowitz and his work at the World Bank,'' Perino said. She said Wolfowitz has worked ``to lift people out of poverty around the world.''

The probe of Riza's promotion is overshadowing the semi- annual meeting of the World Bank and the        International Monetary Fund. Wolfowitz's press conference opening the meeting was dominated by the issue yesterday.

Also meeting in Washington are the finance ministers and central bankers of the Group of Seven industrialized nations, the bank's biggest shareholders. U.K. Chancellor of the Exchequer Gordon Brown declined to comment on Wolfowitz today.

Riza's promotion came with a pay increase that was more than double the amount allowed by staff rules, according the Staff Association. She later received an annual increase of 7.5 percent, also larger than rules allow.

Riza, 52, couldn't be reached for comment yesterday.

``I made a mistake, for which I am sorry,'' Wolfowitz said yesterday. He acknowledged the need to reorganize his personal office, where aides have been criticized for a lack of expertise in development economics and for ties to the Republican Party.

`Relevant Implications'

World Bank directors ``will focus on all relevant governance implications'' when addressing the case, today's statement said.

RationalThought110:
Liberals accuse Wolfowitz having a "dual-loyalty" to Israel, as if it's a bad thing.  Liberals want to equally support all the countries in the "Middle East." 


The dumb liberal conspiracy theorists don't know facts.  Wolfowitz wants Israel to go back to its pre-1967 borders. 


After he was sent out of the Pentagon, why was he appointed president of the World Bank?
