    Baghdad-INA 
    The head of the State of Law Coalition, Nouri al-Maliki, denounced today, Wednesday, foreign interference and attacks on the unity and sovereignty of Syria, stressing his confidence in the security and military capabilities to preserve internal security in Iraq from any disturbance.
     
    Al-Maliki said, in a speech followed by the Iraqi News Agency (INA): that "The terrorist attacks that are happening in Syria are not surprising, but rather part of the contexts that the region is exposed to," indicating that "Syria is targeted because of its geographical location, its role in the region, and its borders."
     
    He denounced "foreign interference and attacks on the unity and sovereignty of Syria," noting that "some countries want to overthrow Syria, end its role as a state, and divide countries around the occupying entity."
     
    Al-Maliki stated "We defended Syria previously because it is a pivotal state, and its fall means the violation of the entire region," stressing that "defending Syria is defending its neighboring countries and the region, so it must be protected to stand up to this challenge."
     "There should be no neutrality towards the events taking place in Syria, which are being carefully and extensively prepared," calling on the world, Arab and Islamic countries to "stand by the unity of Syria to protect it and the countries of the region." Al-Maliki said.
     He stressed the "necessity of protecting national unity and national security and raising the level of responsibility in Iraq," expressing his confidence "in our security and military capabilities to preserve internal security in Iraq from any disturbance."
