Iraqi President Barham Saleh on Thursday reiterated his country’s firm stance on not accepting that Iraq would be the starting point for any action that would harm its neighbors or strain the regional situation.

During his meeting with Iran’s ambassador to Iraq, Erj Musjidi, the Iraqi president called for “easing tension in the region and stressing the participants in fighting extremism and terrorism and ensuring a prosperous future for the peoples of the region.”

“The importance that Iraq attaches to strengthening its bilateral relations with Iran stems from social and cultural ties and common security and economic interests, and we appreciate Iran’s support for Iraqi forces in its war against the terrorist advocate,” he said.

“Iraq is keen to be an arena for meeting the interests of the countries and peoples of the region and will not accept to be the starting point for any action that would harm its neighbors or straining the regional situation.”
