Al-Sudani talked about the stability achieved in Iraq and the increasing capabilities of the Iraqi security forces. He also confirmed that efforts to withdraw the international coalition and switch to bilateral relations with its member states have been proceeding, particularly in light of the defeat of ISIS terrorists.
Additionally, Iraq’s Prime Minister discussed the current situation in the Gaza Strip, Iraq’s efforts to deliver humanitarian aid to the Palestinians, and efforts made to achieve a ceasefire and prevent the expansion of the conflict.
Al-Sudani also called on the international community to bear responsibility for putting an end to the ongoing war and assault that the Palestinian people are subjected to.
Lindner commended the progress, economic growth, and stability achieved in Iraq, stressing that the German government will proceed with the joint action plan that Al-Sudani agreed upon with the German Chancellor during his recent visit to Berlin.
The German minister expressed his country’s support for the Iraqi government’s steps to end the presence of the international coalition in Iraq, expressing Germany’s readiness to sign a bilateral cooperation agreement with Iraq in the security and military fields.
