Iraq keen on best ties with Iran: PM
Iraqi Prime Minister-designate Mustafa Al-Kadhimi reiterated in a meeting with Iran's ambassador to the country that Baghdad is interested in the best ties with Islamic Republic of Iran in all fields.
Noting that his country will never be a crossing point or headquarters for terrorism or a place to attack another country and the arena for resolving disputes, the new premier stressed Iraq's interest in the best ties with Iran and all neighboring states in such a way that the interests of the two neighboring nations and the stability and security of the region are ensured.
Iran's Ambassador Iraj Masjedi, for his part, congratulated Al-Kadhimi for winning parliament's vote of confidence and wished success for his new cabinet.
He also called for boosting bilateral relations and strengthening mutual cooperation in all arenas.
