He emphasized the need to "apply similar mechanisms tailored to each governorate's specific needs and conditions to ensure political stability, effective development management, and enhancing economic structures."
Al-Hakim highlighted the interconnectedness of Iraq's federal and local governance: "Neglect or damage in one part would inevitably impact the entire system."
