Al-Hakim: Iraqi factions are committed and do not want to embarrass the government.
3/29/2025
The leader of the Hikma Movement, Ammar al-Hakim, stated that the Iraqi armed factions are committed to not escalating with the United States and do not wish to embarrass the federal government in this regard. He described the formation of regions in the country at the present time as "inappropriate."
This came during his hosting of a discussion session on Saturday night, Friday, by the "Iraqi House Salon."
Al-Hakim said, "These factions were founded at specific times and played a role in confronting terrorism and liberating the land. We hold the Iraqi actor accountable for prioritizing the national interest in making decisions and taking positions based on the country's sovereignty."
He added, "Iraq, as a state, has its own mechanisms for cooperation and communication with countries in the region and the world, including the United States of America. Communication with countries in the region and the world is a source of strength for Iraq and its interests. The return of major foreign companies to Iraq is evidence of the understanding of countries in the region and the world of Iraq's reality and its promising future."
Regarding the situation in the region, Al-Hakim said, "There is overlap in the arenas between Iraq and the countries of the region, which highlights the region's need for stability in Syria. While we wish Syria stability, we renew our call for the inclusion of the various components of this country, while building good relations with Syria's neighbors and preserving the holy sites of Syria's components."
He pointed out that "the constitutional document raised concerns among countries in the region, including Iraq, and the events in the Sahel reinforced these fears."
Regarding the discussion of forming regions in Iraq, Al-Hakim considered the formation of regions "inappropriate at the present time, despite the constitutional reality of regions, with all due respect to those who make these calls, as they fall within the democratic reality of the country."
