Shafaq News/ Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani said in a letter addressed to US President Joe Biden and the European Union countries, on Sunday, that the region is on the verge of a dangerous slide that could drag it and the world into ongoing wars.
Al-Sudani added in a statement received by Shafaq News Agency, “With the passing of a year since the outbreak of the events of October 7, 2023, and the continuation of the Zionist aggression on Gaza, and its extension to brotherly Lebanon, and the threat to the entire region, Iraq recalls its early position, in which it warned of the consequences of the usurping entity’s pursuit of expanding the war and conflict and the results of letting it persist in committing crimes, amid the inability of the international community to play its role.”
He continued, “Today, in light of the serious repercussions witnessed by the region, we address our message to all friends, especially US President Joe Biden, and the European Union countries, that we stand on the threshold of a dangerous slope that may drag the region and the world into ongoing wars, shake the global economy, and expose development to a major setback, especially since our region represents the lungs through which the world breathes energy. Here, we must appreciate the important position of French President Emmanuel Macron, who called for stopping the supply of weapons to the usurping entity, and working to end the war, because it is a position that stems from a true appreciation of the seriousness of the situation in the region.”
Al-Sudani said, “Our government has worked hard to spare Iraq the effects of this escalation, and we have succeeded in doing so with you and in cooperation with all our friends in the world. The current stage requires doubling our efforts, and our top priority should be to stop targeting civilians, and save the region from the evils of a war that will leave nothing behind, and in which there will be no winner except the logic of killing, sabotage and destruction. We also affirm that Iraq will continue its efforts and endeavors with friendly and sisterly countries, and work together to calm down, and prevent the expansion of the conflict that affects the security of the region and the world.”
