Baghdad

Security pact incomplete – MP

BAGHDAD / IraqiNews.com : Lawmaker Maysoon al-Damalojy of the Iraqi list’s secular parliamentary bloc on Sunday said that the Iraqi-U.S. security pact is “incomplete,” because it preserves neither Iraqi funds in foreign banks nor Iraq’s security. “Iraqi funds will be reachable for any side that seeks compensation,” al-Damalojy told IraqiNews.com. “The United Nations (UN) currently preserves Iraq’s funds in foreign banks, but this issue is not listed in the pact,” she said. “U.S. commitment in the pact to preserve Iraq’s security and border has been brittle,” she added.
