    Leader of Al-Hikma Movement, Sayyid Ammar al-Hakim, set 5 conditions for preserving Iraq's sovereignty.
     
    “At Baghdad Court of Political and Social Elites, we studied the developments of the political scene and the chances of the government's success in providing services and restoring the confidence of the Iraqi street in the political system," said Sayyid Al-Hakim in a statement received by the Iraqi News Agency – INA.
     
    He noted, "We clarified the nature of the challenges facing the government of Prime Minister Muhammad Shia'a al-Sudani, represented by popular frustration and how to satisfy the Iraqi street while at the same time managing the ambition of the political forces and their desire to participate. In addition to that is the challenge of managing and strengthening state institutions as well as caring for public interests. Also, it’s to reassure the regional environment and the international community that Iraq will not be with one party against another. It proceeds in its relations from the supreme national interest and the preservation of its sovereignty.”
     
    Sayyid Al-Hakim stressed "the factors for the success of Al-Sudani government represented by regional and international understanding as Iraq's role in energy supplies, as well as parliamentary support via the state administration coalition, financial abundance and security stability. We also called for anticipating challenges and facing them with more unity, solidarity and collaboration."
     
    “It is important to strategically address the outstanding problems between Baghdad and Erbil by adopting the entire constitution without selectivity,” he included.
     
    He highlighted, saying “to preserve the sovereignty of the Iraqi state, we stipulated five points, the first of which is dealing with the file as an Iraqi federal sovereign file, and the second is the deployment of Iraqi forces on the border strip between Iraq, Iran, Iraq and Turkey. The third is to deal with the IDPs in specific camps far from the borders and demilitarized, in addition to lifting the political and media covers for the work of these groups.”
     
    He added, “and abiding by the constitution that Iraq should not be an arena or to threaten neighboring countries and oblige neighboring countries to coordinate with the federal government in any step to pursue the opponents with the Iraqi government's seriousness in assuming its responsibility to prevent terrorist organizations from attacking neighboring countries.”
