Iran plays no role in formation of Iraq’s new govt.

Sadeqoon took part in the recent Iraq parliamentary elections as part of Prime Minister Haider Al-Abadi’s Victory Coalition.

Mahmood Al-Rubaie told IRNA news agency that some news outlets in Iraq have launched a propaganda campaign with the support of the United States accusing Iran of interfering in Iraqi internal affairs.

Al-Rubaie said that Iran has not been interfering in ongoing political dialogues to form the new Iraqi government.

He further added that the Iraqis will be able to rule themselves as they overcame ISIL terrorist group.

Al-Rubaie said the Victory Coalition plans to support Popular Mobilization Forces as wells as the poor in Iraq in line with its promises during its political campaign.
