In a recent press conference, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs considered the withdrawal of American forces from Iraq as an important and blessed event for the country. This action is seen as a sign of strengthening the sovereignty and national authority of Iraq and clearly demonstrates the failure of the American military presence in the country.
Consequences of 23 Years of Occupation
The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs referred to the 23-year history of the occupation of Iraq by American forces and their allies, mentioning the repercussions of this occupation and the crimes committed. He pointed to the crimes of Abu Ghraib prison and the emergence of ISIS and Takfiri terrorism as negative outcomes of the occupation, stating that these crimes will never be forgotten.
He added: "Now that American forces have left Iraq, we hope that this important step will lead to strengthening the relations between the two countries and also safeguarding Iraq's national sovereignty and independence. This issue is very important for every country in the region and can help establish stability in Iraq."
Prospects for Iran-Iraq Relations
The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also emphasized the importance of Iran-Iraq relations, stating: "The withdrawal of American forces can pave the way for strengthening the relations between the two countries. These relations are significant for both countries due to their proximity and cultural and economic influences." He also referred to economic and cultural cooperation between the two countries and announced efforts to create closer relations in various fields.
These changes in the situation in Iraq and the withdrawal of foreign forces can lead to strengthening nationalism and independence among the Iraqi people. Many Iraqis view this action as a result of their long struggles for freedom from foreign occupation and believe that a bright future awaits their country.
In conclusion, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed hope for a better future for Iraq and its people, emphasizing the necessity of maintaining the national sovereignty and independence of the country and calling on all parties to cooperate in establishing stability and peace in the region.
