Raed Jouhi: I am ashamed of the decision that the United Nations views Iraq 16 years later as a country that needs international assistance
“There is nothing new in the resolution adopted by 15 members other than the continued work of the UN mission in helping Iraq to promote the country, eradicate corruption, support human rights, justice, accountability and the role of women,” Judge Raed Jouhi said. Which confirms the weakness of Iraq and the spread of corruption and the lack of capacity to complete the ministry, despite the passage of time in the sense that there is no ability to lead.
“I do not find a danger in the country that will result in the decision, but it will remain the case now, but this decision could be used in the future if some wanted to do so.
“I am ashamed of the decision that the United Nations views Iraq after 16 years as a country that needs the assistance of the UN international mission,” Judge Juhi said.
He adds that the United Nations missions wish that because they have a source of livelihood for a large number of their employees so I find it necessary for the government to put in its future plans nearby how to promote the situation of the country without the use of the International Mission, like all countries of the world stable Because Iraq has the capacity to qualify for this, but the problem in the mechanism of investment. ”
