Iraq”s President Urges Nasrallah Not to Meddle in Iraqi Affairs
Iraqi President Jalal Talbani urged Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah not to meddle in Iraqi affairs.
"Nasrallah has no right to interfere in Iraq”s internal affairs just as we have no right to interfere in Lebanon”s internal affairs," Talbani stressed.
Talbani”s remarks came during a lengthy meeting with the press.
“Iraq is an independent country and is the cradle of civilization. All those preaching Jihad and patriotism have learned from us,” he added.
“Najaf has graduated militants and Shia clerics, and it is not acceptable that students impose their opinions on their teachers,” Talibani noted, referring to Nasrallah’s speech on May 25 in which he tackled the issue of the resistance in Iraq.
Nasrallah, who expressed his support for the Iraqi resistance against U.S. forces, had urged Iraqis to adopt what he called a "liberation strategy."
