He added, "The most important thing about this achievement is that it unified the positions of the Iraqi political forces, and this gives a glimmer of hope to the Iraqis that we are united in visions regarding Iraqi sovereignty, which we hope will be reflected in the upcoming elections." He continued, "We have moved to a new stage of relations with the United States of America in the long run, providing support and training to our security and military services, as well as in the economic, energy and environment fields. Today, our forces have received recognition for their ability to protect our lands and people from terrorist groups and protect internal security. Iraq needs to take advantage of this opportunity to strengthen social peace and work within the framework of the state."

We seek and support everyone to search for a mechanism for dialogue, it is certainly better than differences and wars. We support dialogue, whether it is American-Iranian, or any dialogue that can help in the stability of the region, because it has repercussions on Iraq’s stability and its economic situation.”/ End
