The head of the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq Sheikh Humam Hammoudi called on Wednesday, on Japan to take more serious stances with Gaza.
 
The media office of the head of the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq said in a statement received by the Iraqi News Agency (INA) that "The head of the Iraqi Islamic Supreme Council, Sheikh Humam Hammoudi, received Japan's ambassador to Iraq, Futoshi Matsumoto."
 
Sheikh Hammoudi stressed, during the meeting, that "there is an internal and regional interaction for the initiative we launched to make oil in exchange for protecting the people of Gaza, stopping genocide and opening relief corridors," noting that "oil is essential in the lives of peoples and that the West only understands the language of interests and we must address it with it."
 
He pointed out that "Iraq does not want to expand the war and at the same time does not accept the extermination of the people of Gaza in this brutal way and the international community is watching," noting that "peoples all over the world began to sympathize humanely with Gaza and come out with large demonstrations, and their anger may develop into what no one can control or prevent."
 
Sheikh Hammoudi urged "Japan to take more serious stances with Gaza worthy of Japan's international weight and the breadth of its relations and interests with the countries of the region," noting that "silence is what encouraged the Zionist entity to persist and violate international laws and norms."
