Spokesman Philip Reeker: Steps taken to Freeze Terrorist's Assets [audio clip transcript]

[audio]

 
But I would like to point out that we have taken the steps today to freeze assets as another step in our war against terrorism, the financial aspect of that war.

In addition to those steps announced by the President, it is important to point out that over 120 countries are taking part in this, and following the atrocities of September the 11th, I will remind you that the UN Security Council passed Resolution 1373, requiring all nations to keep their financial systems free of terrorist funds.
