In an interview with Al-Arabiya TV, Dr. Abdulkarim al-Samarraii, Iraqi MP from Iraqi Islamic Party, said: By infiltration in Basra, the Iranian regime has converted that city to the city of criminal gangs who want to destroy everything, which is neither to the benefit of Shiites nor Sunnis.

He added: The Iranian regime has gained a lot from Iraq’s occupation; it has dragged this country to the scene of its nuclear file conflict and even political file in different ways, thus the Iranian regime’s plans in Iraq are never in favor of Iraqi Shiites or Sunnis’ interests.
