Hoshiyar Zebari, Iraqi
foreign affairs minister, confirmed the situation of
the Iraqi government, which is rejecting and
condemning any statements that target the Arab or
Islamic identity of Iraq.
In a speech, Zebari pointed out that the decision to
suspend the membership of Iraq in the Arab League
based on the statements of the Secretary-General Amr
Mousa is a comprehensive Arab decision and is not
the competence of the Secretary-General by himself.

He added that the Iraqi government has expressed
that it is not comfortable with regard to the
statements of the Secretary-General of the Arab
League, due to their nature and timing, as well,
especially as the Iraqi command does not in any way
intend to erase the Arab or Islamic identity of
Iraq. Iraq has been destined to survive and mingle
with its Arab and Islamic surroundings.
Nevertheless, these statements, which have aroused
extreme reactions in the Iraqi street, have been
considered as a sort of interference in an Iraqi
local issue at an inappropriate time.
