In that same interview he said very clearly that he was against withdrawal of troops and setting a deadline.
AMY GOODMAN: Let me ask you about Iraq, your feeling about the war right now and what should happen. Should the U.S. withdraw immediately?
GOVERNOR RICHARDSON: No. I believe setting a deadline and withdrawing immediately is not sensible policy. I think we need to have an exit strategy. We don't have that. I think we need to find a way to send a message to the international community that this is not just America, that we need international support. I believe that we've mishandled our relationship with our allies, with the United Nations.
I believe that it's important that we have an Iraq policy that we're either going to finish the job or we're going to exit. And, right now, we're muddling through. What I believe we need to do is have a sensible military, economic, political, foreign policy assessment of what our goals and objectives are. Our objective, I believe, should be to start pursuing as rapidly as we can an exit strategy. Do we have a deadline? Do we pull out immediately? No.
Does that mean he has changed his mind on the issue?
