AIPolitical analyst Dr. Abdul Majid Al-Jalal praised Iraq’s decision to form an investigative council regarding the Maysan leadership in connection with attacks on the Kingdom.
Speaking in an interview with Al-Ikhbariya Radio, Al-Jalal described the move as positive, but stressed that the real need is to disarm militias—especially the Popular Mobilization Forces—and prevent them from threatening the security of Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and the Gulf states.
He added that Iraq and the Gulf countries require cooperation and coordination to shield their societies from the consequences of the US-Iran conflict, as Iran’s Revolutionary Guard seeks to create chaos in coordination with the Popular Mobilization Forces in Iraq.
Al-Jalal further stated that the Iraqi government must work to disarm the Popular Mobilization Forces, which take orders from Iran and undermine Iraqi-Gulf relations, calling for further positive measures to limit the threat posed by these militias.
