TEHRAN, Apr 4 (NNN-IRNA) – Iranian President, Ebrahim Raisi, said yesterday that, the United States has, by no means, any compassion towards Muslim nations, according to the president’s official website.
Making the remarks in a phone conversation with his Iraqi counterpart, Barham Salih, Raisi said, it has become evident that the external power only seeks its own interests and hegemonic goals.
Raisi said, Iran supports Iraq in promoting its unity, independence, security and regional and international position, noting, any insecurity in Iraq will be detrimental to the entire region.
The scope of “brotherly and friendly” relations between Iran and Iraq goes beyond that of merely two neighbours, the Iranian president told Salih.
Meanwhile, the Iraqi president emphasised the need for enhancing bilateral cooperation with Iran to overcome regional challenges, according high priority to stability and security in the region.
Regional crises can be resolved solely by the countries of the region and without external interference, Salih said.– NNN-IRNA
