The statement added that the Iraqi Air Force dealt a painful blow against the site of the leaders of the terrorist Daashish south of Dhaishah within the Syrian territory, has achieved this goal after the destruction of the site completely.
Observers of the Iraqi Shiite that the dispute between Iraq and Jordan on the border control be on the presidency of the security committee to be formed between the two countries, where Iraq sees that he is the first in the chairmanship of the Committee while Jordan insists on its presidency.
"Iraq has agreements with neighboring countries, including Jordan, regarding border controls, and this file is regularly discussed at meetings of Arab interior ministers to follow up the implementation of the agreements," said Majid al-Gharawi, a member of the parliamentary security and defense committee.
He said that the Iraqi-Syrian border is now the most dangerous areas, especially that the stronghold of the organization is present in Syria and connected to the territory of Iraq, specifically Mosul, which is still under his control, recognizing that the militants are now moving between the two countries without obstacles or impediments to the absence of troops to address them.
"The international relations are not only based on the joint committees because the diplomatic work is based on reading the regional and international balances, therefore it is very necessary to see the Iraqi Foreign Ministry in the issue of foreign relations on security and border control, since the fall of the former regime and Now Jordan is still a threat to Iraq, especially after the emergence of Zarqawi, who fueled the strife in Iraq in the past years. "
"The formation of joint security committees does not work, because Iraq could have taken the initiative to move Jordan for the purpose of keeping the border for years, and not through the shy criticism of the Iraqi Foreign Ministry about the issue of not holding the border before," al-Sharifi told the Journal News. Jordan, these are commitments that must be based on successful and informed diplomacy. "
"Iraq must move seriously to put legal controls on the issue of border control and to hold Jordan to the burden of cases of breaches that are obtained by its borders through joint coordination."
The security expert Ali al-Haidari noted that neighboring countries such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Jordan and Iran are able to control the border on its part and if there are infiltrations into Iraq, it will be aware of these countries, according to al-Haidari, but the border with Syria is the problem of the absence of force to control, To generally rely on its own capabilities to protect the border on its part.
Al-Haidari reviewed the methods used to control the borders of observation towers, march aircraft, thermal radars and other capabilities, which are not owned by Iraq, which has long borders with the majority of neighboring countries.
The security expert stressed that securing the border is an urgent necessity and a very important element in the ongoing battle against Daqash, who receives many of his supplies and reinforcements across the border.
Iraq's border with its six neighbors is 3,650 kilometers long with Iran, which has a border with Iraq of 1458 km and Saudi Arabia with a length of 814 km.
