Awake Goy FNA- Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani warned of enemies’ plots to disintegrate Iraq, calling on the Kurds not to allow materialization of hostile plans against their country by arranging an independence referendum.
“The plot to disintegrate Iraq is what the enemies are after and certainly, such issues create some tensions which will destroy the achievements already gained,” Larijani said in a meeting with officials of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan in Tehran on Wednesday.
Warning that certain differences shouldn’t endanger ties between the Shiites and Sunnis, he said, “Safeguarding the country’s security should be of prior importance.”
Larijani underlined that despite certain deficiencies and problems in Iraq, the Kurds have attained good achievements after the end of Saddam Hussein’s era in Iraq.
In relevant remarks on Monday, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Ali Shamkhani warned that arrangement of a referendum for independence of Iraq’s Kurdistan region will harm the Kurds and the entire nation in Iraq.
“Although this issue might be attractive in appearance but actually, it will isolate and pressure the Iraqi Kurds and weaken Kurdistan and finally the entire Iraq,” Shamkhani said in a meeting with First Deputy Secretary of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan Kosrat Rasul and Chief of Executive Body Politburo of the Union Mala Bakhtiar in Tehran.
Stressing that holding a referendum doesn’t meet the real needs and priorities of the people and runs counter to the Iraqi officials’ policy, he warned, “Certain regional and trans-regional states want to weaken Iraq and the large countries in West Asia.”
During the meeting, Shamkhani was also informed of the latest developments in the Iraqi Kurdistan region by the two Kurdish officials.
