Baghdad / NINA / - Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi affirmed: "We have avoided the abyss toward which Iraq was deteriorating, as a result of the events of the fall of 2019, but the challenges we face remain strong."

Al-Kazemi said in an interview with the Italian newspaper, "La Repubblica," "ISIS still poses a threat, and is trying to gather its ranks, but the terrorists are no longer able to obtain geographical incubators." We dealt them important strikes and killed many of their leaders, noting that "our intelligence cooperation with our allies has become more effective, and we have asked Italy to remain in the front line in training our forces."

He added, "Iraq is ready to strengthen military cooperation with Italy, in the field of training and development of work in the fight against corruption, money laundering, organized crime and mafias."

He continued, "We have asked the Americans and Iranians to refrain from settling their scores in Iraq. For years, we have been an arena for collision and conflict, and we must choose the path of political dialogue to resolve differences, and everyone will benefit from the fruits of the truce."

Al-Kazemi said, "We are communicating with the administration of President Biden, and I believe that we will be able to move towards a stage of regional dialogue, adding, "We want Iraq to be one of the countries that successfully manage crises, and not one of those countries that cause or are affected by them.

" The agreement between Iran and the United States is very important, it is crucial for the region and I think it is verifiable. Success in the Vienna negotiations will positively affect the region and serve the stability of Iraq
