Iran's judiciary chief says cooperation with Iraq more necessary than ever

Shafaq News/ Iran's chief Justice Gholam Hossein Mohseni Eje'i on Wednesday said that cooperation between Iran and Iraq is more necessary than ever in the face of "malicious" actions of the United States and Israel in the Middle East.

Eje'i made the remarks during a meeting with members of the Iraq's Shiite Coordination Framework in Baghdad.

He said that the "Great Devil America" and the "Zionist entity" are carrying out "malicious acts" against Islamic countries, including Iran and Iraq.

"Therefore, the need for unity and cooperation between the two countries has become more necessary than it was in the past," he added.

Eje'i praised "the success achieved today in Iran and Iraq in preserving independence, strengthening national sovereignty, and establishing security and stability, as well as the progress they both achieved are the result of following religious teachings and perseverance and steadfastness on the path of truth."
