Press Release Iran- Round 2

Considers recent developments regarding Israeli’s commercial relations with Kurds in Iraq—without properly consulting with Iraqi’s Ministry of Oil or Iraqi Oil Minister Abdul Karim al-Luaibi—a de-facto recognition of a Kurdish independent state. Understanding this, Iran condemns Israel’s provocative action in the strongest possible terms and hopes Israel will reconsider its incendiary actions in the broader Middle East.

Hopes for the continued territorial integrity of Iraq and a peaceful outcome in the country free of Western contamination.
