Najaf Ashraf's Friday prayer preacher's warning: business ties and communication with Tehran are a basic principle for us Sedrodin Kavanchi: Iran will always remain and we must not sacrifice our national interests to confront this country for the satisfaction of others. It is not acceptable to enter into a challenge with a neighboring country that has a common identity, economy and history with us because of the interests of the foreigners. We are not looking for a confrontation with the international community, but communication and business relations with Iran are a basic principle for us, and Iraq and Iran should not be sacrificed for foreign demands.
