Iraqi Premier to US: Stop Supporting Terrorists in Syria, You’re Backing Terrorism in Iraq

International

BAGHDAD- Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki called on the United States and its allies to stop supporting armed groups fighting the Syrian government, saying that by this move they are backing terrorism in Iraq, according to Press TV.

“I am appealing to the countries that talked about supporting armed groups in Syria with weapons. I tell them, you are supporting terrorism in Iraq,” Maliki stated in his weekly televised speech on Wednesday.

He added that other countries in the world must help Iraq in its fight against terrorism.

 “The international community must take the responsibility of supporting us and helping all those who stand against terrorism. Allowing weapons to reach terrorist organizations and extremists in Syria means supporting terrorism in Iraq.”

In a recent interview, Maliki slammed Saudi Arabia for supporting terrorist groups in his country. “The current terrorism originates from Saudi Arabia,” Maliki said.

The Iraqi premier also blamed Riyadh for sponsoring terrorism in Syria.

The Wednesday remarks came after it was revealed that the United States more than doubled its supply of weaponry and munitions to armed groups.
