US Official Says Natsios Voiced Personal OpinionJune 20, 2001 Jendayi E. Frazer, senior director of Africa affairs at the National Security Council, said Monday that US Agency for International Development chief Andrew Natsios was expressing only his personal opinion when he said that some Africans' alleged inability to tell time makes it impractical to provide them with AIDS medicine. She said that those who would pit prevention against treatment are "engaged in a false debate." Frazer's audience at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace luncheon in Washington, D.C., responded with laughter when she said, "Andrew was with us on Secretary [of State Colin] Powell's visit to Africa, and we were on time, and everybody whom we met was on time."
