leon-panettaBRUSSELS: Defence Secretary Leon Panetta said Thursday any US forces that remain in Iraq beyond a year-end deadline would require legal "immunity," despite calls from Iraqi leaders to end the protection.

Panetta, asked about a statement from leaders of Iraqi political parties, said "clearly that any kind of US presence demands that we protect and provide the appropriate immunity for our soldiers" if there is a post-2011 US mission.
