As relations between Iran and the United States continue to deteriorate, FRANCE 24 spoke to Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani in Paris. He warned that “any tension between the US and Iran, any tension between the regional countries, will reflect on Iraq negatively”. Expressing hope that a new meeting involving Saudi Arabia and Iran will take place in Baghdad “in the coming weeks”, he said the two countries were “keen to resume these meetings under our (Iraqi) auspices”.
