"The Islamic Republic of Iran should take firmer positions to oppose the referendum, support the territorial integrity of Iraq and its delivery to Iraqi Kurdistan officials and warn against the consequences of this new and dangerous strife on Iraq, the region and the entire Islamic world," he stressed.
The head of the Expediency Council, "Ankara's stand with Tehran and Baghdad, in the context of their common interests in the firm response to the division of this country and the reduction of new strife is very important."
