Top Security Official Urges Iraq to Secure Borders
TEHRAN -- The newly-appointed secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council said Monday a recent security pact signed between Iran and Iraq is the result of months of negotiations and joint efforts as well as a roadmap for establishing stable security at the borders between the two countries.
“We expect the Iraqi government to guarantee the security of the common borders with Iran as soon as possible as it is stipulated in the security pact by ending the presence of anti-Iranian elements in Iraq,” Ali Akbar Ahmadian told his Iraqi counterpart Qassim al-Araji here.
