Baghdad, Dec 20, IRNA – In an academic gathering here, hundreds of Iraqi university students and professors praised the role played by Iran is boosting the security status in their country.The gathering titled ‘Surveying Regional Countries’ Role in Restoration or Deteriorating of Iraq’s Security Status’ was held at the College of Political Sciences of Baghdad’s Al-Mustansiriya University amid “an amicable atmosphere” according to many students and attended by hundreds of Iraqi professors and students.
The speakers of the gathering were from Baghdad’s Al-Mustansiriya, Al Nahrain, and Tikrit universities and one professor from Iran, who focused on the theoretical frameworks of the growth of terrorism and their shared points with the situation in Iraq.
He then surveyed Iran’s role in restoration of security in Iraq. This speaker’s lecture received the standing ovation of the large audience in the gathering.
In the gathering in the presence of representatives from the Iranian Cultural Attaché and the Turkish Cultural Attaché, the Iraqi professors surveyed the ground for the growth of the Takfiri trends and aggression in Iraq.
They surveyed the cultural, political, and regional aspects of the malicious phenomenon, surveyed the regional countries’ roles in its rise, and its effects on the national security of Iraq.
Almost every speaker in the gathering praised Iran’s role in restoration of Iraq’s national security under such conditions that no other country in the world was ready to support the Iraq nation.
They described Iran’s bravery in venturing the task of assisting its Iraqi brethren as praiseworthy, contrasted with the destructive role played by some other regional countries, such as Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, which were only after securing their own nasty interests in Iraq by fueling the sedition of the Takfiri terrorists, which was bitterly criticized in the gathering.
They said that one of the regional countries (Turkey) had earlier provided all the required facilities for the ISIS and the Salafist and Takfiri groups to topple Bashar al-Assad’s regime in Syria, thus imposing a heavy cost against the Syrian and the Iraqi nations, as well as the other countries.
The speakers said that the country in question thus deteriorated its relations with its neighbors and even stood in direct contrast against its allied countries (the US and the West).
Those speakers did not directly refer to Turkey’s name in respect for the Turkish Cultural Attaché who was present in their gathering though.
The gathering was one of the first of its kind in Iraqi university atmosphere.
