The president of the republic media office said in a statement received by the Iraqi News Agency (INA), that "President Saleh received representatives of the Iraqi components and sects from various cities and regions throughout the country, where the upcoming elections and their importance for the Iraqi components were discussed.

Salih said that "Iraq faces a great entitlement in a few days that will be in elections, which will be a turning point in the country and chart its future, and it must be a real starting point towards reforming the current situation in a way that assurances good governance, recognizes the rights and duties of citizens, imposes the rule of law and preserves the sovereignty of the country."

He added, "wide participation is necessary to prevent lurking those trying to manipulate Iraqis' votes," noting that "the electoral process will be subject to exceptional technical measures to prevent fraud and ensure the voice of Iraqis."
