Tasnim News Agency, “Mustafa Al-Rabiei”, an expert on Iraqi issues – Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, emphasized two points during Al-Kazemi’s meeting with him on July 21, 2020:

The first point was the relationship between Iraq and Iran on the one hand and the relationship between Iraq and America on the other hand.

In this meeting, they clearly emphasized that Iranians want an honorable, independent Iraq with the preservation of territorial integrity and internal unity and cohesion, and that Tehran is against anything that weakens the Iraqi government.

Hazrat Ayatollah Khamenei added: The Americans’ view of Iraq is exactly the opposite of ours; Because America is an enemy in the true sense of the word and does not agree with Iraq, which is independent, strong and has a government with the majority vote. : “Iran does not interfere in the relations between Iraq and America, but it expects that Iraqi friends know America and know that the presence of America in any country is the source of corruption, ruin and destruction”.

They said in this meeting : The American crime in the assassination of Sardar Soleimani and Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis is an example of the result of the American presence in Iraq.

However, because of his knowledge They had a deep understanding of the traditions and customs of the Iraqi society, (from another angle) they focused on the assassination of General Soleimani, who had traveled to this country at the official invitation of the Iraqi government, and General Soleimani, as a high-ranking military advisor, served the Iraqi government in The defeat of ISIS helped.

By addressing Al-Kazemi, they actually addressed their words to the people of Iraq and the noble tribes of this country and They said: “They (the Americans) killed your guest in your house and openly admitted this crime, which is not a small matter.”

Author This article continues after referring to the statements of the Supreme Leader in the meeting with Mustafa Al-Kazemi and says: Unfortunately, the government of Iraq was a government of crises and did not pay much attention to the issue of the presence of the Americans or the case of the assassination of the victory commanders.

But yesterday morning (Friday) the words of Mohammad Shia al-Sudani, the Prime Minister of Iraq, on the fourth anniversary of the assassination of Hajj Qassem Soleimani and his comrade Hajj Abu Mahdi In the official ceremony organized by the Iraqi government, al-Muhandis was actually a reference to the revolutionary leader’s statements four years ago. In their speech today, they emphasized: Four years ago, on the morning of January 3, 2020, the US government committed a heinous act by killing the vice-chairman of the Popular Mobilization Forces, Jamal Jafar Al-Ibrahim, nicknamed Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis.

The Prime Minister of Iraq added: the assassination of General Qassem Soleimani, as a guest of the Iraqis, It dealt a double blow to Iraq, the traditions and customs of this country, and it was actually like an attack on two countries. He also pointed out with the United States: Iraq has a strategic partnership agreement and diplomatic relations with the United States, but with this (terrorist) action, the basic principles governing international relations and what is stated in the United Nations charters regarding equality in governance between countries and the prohibition of the use of force It has been stipulated in international relations, it was violated. The attacks of the international coalition forces on the Hashd al-Shaabi headquarters have been repeated several times. The forces are subordinate to the country of Iraq and an integral part of the armed forces of this country. If a violation is committed by one of the Iraqi parties or if Iraqi laws are violated in some way, the government of this country is the only authority and party that has the right to follow up on the details of these violations.

Al-Sudani noted: The Iraqi government is the only authority that can apply the law, and everyone must act through the government, and no one has the right to encroach on the sovereignty of Iraq.

The Prime Minister of Iraq continued: We condemn the attacks that target the security forces of this country; Because we consider such attacks to be beyond the spirit and text of the powers that created the international coalition. Iraq said: We emphasize our firm and principled position to end the presence of the international coalition forces despite the end of their justifications and excuses for continuing their presence in Iraq.

The Prime Minister of Iraq continued: Through the bilateral committee that was formed to determine the preparations for the end of the presence of the coalition forces, we are trying to determine the date of the beginning of the dialogue in this regard, and this is a requirement and commitment that the Iraqi government It will never retreat from it and will not fail in anything related to Iraq’s national sovereignty, including land, air and Iraqi water sovereignty.

Al-Sudani emphasized in his words: We emphasize the ability and readiness of the government to take appropriate decisions in order to maintain the sovereignty, security and stability of this country, and we consider it the main axis of the responsibilities, obligations and duties of the constitution.

The Prime Minister of Iraq said: The example of loyalty and recognizing and appreciating the blood of the martyrs and their sacrifices requires that we all respect the government and its constitutional institutions. .

This is the first time that the Prime Minister of Iraq reminds that the assassination of the “guest of Iraq” is a crime that shows It is a violation of Iraqi sovereignty.

According to the tribal background of Mr. Shia al-Sudani and his belonging to one of the southern tribes of Iraq and its sheikhs, in In fact, talking about the betrayal of the “guest of Iraq” is a response from the highest executive authority of Iraq to the words of the supreme leader of the revolution four years ago. So that the Prime Minister of Iraq not only considered the assassination of the “guest of Iraq” a crime, but for the first time spoke openly about its condemnation.

The author of this text goes on to say: Therefore, here it is necessary to support the Sudanese government and its plans to strengthen the political and security stability of Iraq, which it has succeeded in doing during the past year. At the same time, we should pay attention to the economic and political complications of Iraq, which have prevented some actions of the current government; Because in order to speed up the implementation of this government’s brave decision to end the military presence of foreign forces in Iraq, it should be supported.

In the shadow of these conditions and the complex outlook, the conditions demand that the Iraqi resistance groups together with the government of Mr. Al-Sudani jointly seek the withdrawal of America from Iraq and realize this important through synergy.
