Barham Salih comments on the "Israel-Saudi alliance"
Shafaq News/ The Iraqi President, Barham Salih, considered today, Monday, that the countries of the Middle East must learn from the past and work together for security and prosperity.
This came in response to a question by a political analyst and presenter of the GPS program on CNN, during a television interview with him.
In the interview, Barham Salih also commented on whether US President Joe Biden was right about returning to the Iranian nuclear agreement, saying: "Iran is a major player in that part of the world, and for me, in Iraq, we have a long border with Iran, We have all kinds of interactions...cultural, social, shared security interests, you name it...so this is clearly a matter of consequences for us, and it is a consequence of the broader region, indeed the world."
Saleh added: "There are no military solutions, and we need a diplomatic end to this impasse, and we need a security arrangement in the Middle East, where we meet to combat terrorism, which remains a major problem."
The Iraqi president indicated that there must be a nuclear agreement with Iran, and that there should be some kind of reconciliation between Iran and the Arabs.
Barham Salih explained that "Iraq plays a very important role in time to mediate between the Saudis and the Iranians," adding: "There were a number of talks that took place in Baghdad between Iran and other Arab neighbors, and there are some important atmospheres that have improved."
While the presenter said: "But this is not where things are going now..what is happening is that Saudi Arabia is making a tacit alliance with Israel..the United States has effectively established an open alliance, and this is very similar to the strategy of containment of two warring camps." .
Saleh commented, "I think this is again..If you go back to history, this is a recipe for repeating the terrible tragedies of the past..This part of the world cannot continue like this..We are fortunate to have oil, but we have very serious economic and social challenges, We need infrastructure that can connect our economies together.. We need joint action against climate change.. Iraq cannot do it alone.. Saudi Arabia cannot do it alone, Iran cannot do it alone, and the Turks cannot do it alone. They do it on their own... Ultimately, Syria has to be brought back into the corner, and we have to find a way to get Syria out of the chaos that it has been in for a long time today."
And he added, "While we focus on the headlines from the rivalries between countries... between the Iranians and the Saudis, between this and that... at the end of the day there are really big challenges facing every country in that part of the world... we don't want to go back to the past where we are part of one side." Against the other, we did it and paid a heavy price."
