Shafaq News/ The leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, renewed, on Sunday, his rejection of any regional or international interference in Iraqi affairs, especially the formation of the new federal government, stressing that the negotiations or objections to the results of the latter are nothing but a democratic struggle.
Al-Sadr said in a tweet on Twitter, followed by Shafak News Agency, regarding the new government’s dealings with neighboring countries, “We will seek to consolidate relations with neighboring countries that did not interfere in Iraq’s internal affairs, and we are working to find joint projects on security, economics, culture, health, education and industry, and at all levels.”
He added that “the neighboring countries that have clear interference in Iraqi affairs, we will open a high-level dialogue with them to prevent interference at all. If they respond, this is welcome. Otherwise, we will resort to diplomatic and international methods to prevent this.”
Al-Sadr warned the countries interfering in the Iraqi affairs that he would resort to “reducing economic and diplomatic dealings and other strict measures in force internationally and regionally.”
