Fuad Hussein told Arab media that there are no foreign combat troops on Iraqi soil.
“We will allow Iraqi territory to be used to attack neighboring states,” he added.
Tensions between the United States and Iran are affecting Iraq, he said, adding that tensions must be reduced.
Iraq wishes the countries of the region, he said, that the country be perceived as an isolated state.
Hussein said his country is on a remote island, adding that Iraq desires countries in the region and the Persian Gulf region.
