President Salih and Mr. Al-Araji spoke about the need to support the efforts undertaken by the Iraqi security and intelligence services. They emphasized the need to prevent any efforts aiming at instability or insecurity in the country.
Security gains should be maintained and enhanced, President Salih said, while the ongoing war against the last remaining cells of the terrorist should be continued, with a focus on the need to address the security flaws.
Furthermore, the President hailed the Iraqi state authority’s efforts while working on enforcing the law, protecting citizens’ security, combating terrorism, and arresting a number of ISIS’s leaders. Compromise should not be made in fighting against terrorism and extremism, he added.
