My memory of the way the remark was reported soon after the war is that the United States "has no view" on the boundary dispute between Kuwait and Iraq. In other words, as I see it, Washington was imposing no advance restrctions on the way the boundary negotiations might go. In the atlases of the time, there were at least two lozenge-shaped "neutral" sections along the international frontiers west of the Euphrates, so I suppose they had never been defined rigidly.
