Today, Saturday, the Iraqi presidency affirmed its position rejecting normalization with “Israel”, warning against “inflaming the general situation.”

And the presidency stated in a press statement: “While the Presidency of the Republic affirms Iraq’s firm position and support for the Palestinian cause and the implementation of the full legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, it renews its categorical rejection of the issue of normalization with Israel, and calls for respect for the will of the Iraqis and their independent national decision.”

She added, “The last meeting held to promote this concept does not represent the people and residents of Iraqi cities, but rather represents the positions of those who participated in it only, as well as an attempt to inflame the general situation and target civil peace.”

The Iraqi presidency called on “to refrain from promoting nationally and legally rejected concepts that affect the feelings of Iraqis, at a time when we must prepare for fair and transparent elections that support the national path in Iraq and restore a free and dignified life for all Iraqis.”
