Baghdad-INA
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA)sent official letters to the Security Council, the Secretary-General of the United Nations, the Arab League, and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, in response to the Zionist entity’s threats to attack Iraq.
"Iraq is a pillar of stability in its regional and international surroundings, and is among the countries most committed to the principles of the United Nations Charter,” MOFA stressed in its messages, issued in a statement received by the Iraqi News Agency (INA) today, Saturday.
The Iraqi messages indicated that "the message of the Zionist entity to the Security Council represents part of a systematic policy to create allegations and pretexts with the aim of expanding the scope of the conflict in the region."
The ministry stressed that "Iraq's resort to the Security Council comes from its keenness to have the Council perform its role in maintaining international peace and security, and the necessity of taking the necessary measures to stop the Zionist aggression in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, and obligating the Zionist entity to stop the ongoing violence in the region and stop issuing threats."
The ministry explained that "Iraq was keen to exercise self-restraint regarding the use of its airspace to target a neighboring country," stressing "the importance of the international community's intervention to stop these aggressive behaviors, which constitute a flagrant violation of the principles of international law."
The letters also stressed that "Iraq calls for concerted international efforts to stop the Israeli escalation in the region and ensure respect for international laws and charters, which contributes to enhancing security and stability in the region."
He continued, "Iraq has requested that the letter be circulated to member states and register as an official document with the relevant organizations."
