Al-Skini told Al-Araby Al-Jadeed: “The intervention of Plashart and its meetings must be in accordance with the interest of Iraq, and not in the interest of some political parties, or others, that want to cause turmoil in Iraq and cause it to suffer great losses,” indicating that “the United Nations can play a role. The mediator is between the government, between the factions, and the US administration, but this must be according to the country's interest. "
He stressed that "the position of the United Nations is a calming factor in the crisis that Iraq is going through, which may have dangerous repercussions on it," considering that "today it is not necessary that there be legitimacy for those factions in order for the meetings to take place with them, they exist on the ground, and there is turmoil in the field." Iraqiya and settling scores require intervention and mediation to get out of the crisis. "
He asked about "the outcomes of the meeting, its contents, and its repercussions regarding the solution to the crisis."
As for the former deputy, Abdul Karim Abtan, he told Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed, "The United Nations has begun to enter into the line of the Iraqi crisis by directing advice to these factions and calling on them not to escalate, especially in the stage that Iraq is currently going through." The escalation will leave Iraq with great international isolation, given that the factions are registered within the (Popular Mobilization), and within the Ministry of Defense, they must protect the state and prevent any offensive operations. "
He pointed out that "Iraq needs to impose the prestige of the state and order and to protect the diplomatic corps and missions," stressing that "the path of dialogue is the guarantor of overcoming crises, especially since there is a problem."
