TEHRAN (ISNA)- Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi reiterated that there is not even one Iranian soldier inside Iraqi soil.
�They (Iranians) have been very useful. They are now helping us. But, I have to stress that there is not even one Iranian soldier inside Iraq. No Iranian soldier is fighting in our soil. They were not in Iraq even before,� he said.

He also described Iran�s role in fighting ISIL in Iraq as �very positive�.

�Iranians helped us when ISIL sent its forces to Iraq. They helped both Baghdad and Kurdish forces. They acted swiftly in sending weapons,� said Iraqi prime minister.
