The Tasnim group in Baghdad Badr criticizes the al-Zidani government for following the anti-Iranian policy of the US.
🔹 Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein admitted that the American side officially asked Iraq to close all border crossings with Iran except for two. This statement sparked debate regarding previous justifications given by the government of Prime Minister Mustafa al-Fadh al-Zidani for closing the Hezba (al-Shib) border crossing.
🔹 In the past, the Iraqi government claimed that the closure of the Hezba border crossing was not due to external pressures but only for technical and logistical reasons.
🔹 In a sharp response to Fouad Hussein's words, Badr's parliamentary bloc rejected any idea of Baghdad following what he called "US dictates", while calling for the reopening of all border crossings with Iran. 🔹 Badr's bloc in the Iraqi parliament emphasized that the continued closure of border crossings with Iran harms the economy and the interests of Iraqi citizens, and constitutes US interference in Iraq's internal affairs and sovereignty.
