US President Bush called for democratic reforms in the Middle East, saying "freedom can be the future of every nation." Later, at a White House ceremony, Bush signed an USD 87.5 B package approved by Congress for Iraq and Afghanistan, calling the money a financial commitment by the US to the global war to defeat terrorism. During his earlier speech, Bush said the stakes were particularly high in Iraq, where a US-led coalition toppled Saddam Hussein 's rule. "The failure of Iraqi democracy would embolden terrorists around the world," the president said. He added the US and other nations shared blame for the lack of democratic freedoms in the Middle East.
