Iraqi President Barham Salih called for international assistance to rebuild the war-ravaged Arab country in the aftermath of victory over Daesh [the Arabic acrohym for Takfiri terrorist ‘ISIS/ISIL’ group].

Addressing the 74th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Wednesday, Salih stated that Iraq is at the doorstep of positive development after defeating the extremists, warning of attempts by Daesh remnants to re-organize.

He further noted that the Baghdad government values developing bilateral relationships with its neighbors in order to transform the country from a battlefield to an economic hub in the Middle East region.

Salih also called for efforts to help Syrians reach a political solution to nearly nine years of conflict.

He also condemned Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s controversial pledge to annex the Jordan Valley and the adjacent northern Dead Sea in the occupied West Bank as blatant violation of international law and regulations.

Salih finally urged the international community to help reduce tensions in the Persian Gulf, and expressed serious concern over the Saudi-led military campaign against Yemen.
