Tehran resorting to water terrorism against Iraq to embarrass Al-Kazemi
The Iranian regime resorted to using the most
despicable methods against the Iraqi people in an attempt to strike the
government of Mustafa Al-Kazimi for its direction towards its Arab
surroundings, and to try to get rid of Iranian influence in the country, as the
spokesman for the Iraqi Ministry of Water Resources accused Tehran of cutting
water from Iraqi lands and diverting water to its lakes. Threatening Iraqis
with thirst.
The Ministry's reports monitored a complete cutoff
of the water of the Sirwan and Zab rivers from the Iranian side, which causes
great damage to Iraq, especially on the Diyala River, on which Diyala
governorate depends entirely, as well as for the Dokan Dam on which the Kirkuk
irrigation project depends, in addition to the fact that the water stored in
the dam Dukan, which contributes to supplying the Tigris as well.
A spokesman for the ministry, “Awni Diab,” indicated
that the ministry issued a statement in this regard, and asked the Iranian side
and the specialists in the field of water resources management there to return
the imports to their normal state.
According to the General Directorate of Dams in
Iraq, rainwater constitutes 30% of Iraq's water resources, while the waters of
the rivers extending from Turkey and Iran constitute 70%, while the Tigris and
Euphrates rivers, which descend from the mountains of southeastern Turkey and
extend through Syria and then Iraq, before pouring into The Gulf, Iraq’s main
source of water for agriculture.
It is noteworthy that the rate of decline heralded a
major problem, and placed Mesopotamia in front of a potential disaster after
Iran also diverted the course of rivers that were contributing to the supply of
water to Iraq.
The Iranian move coincided with the visit of Iraqi
Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi to Washington to establish a legal status
within which to define the future of US-Iraqi relations.
This includes the redeployment of US forces in Iraq
with a specific timetable and an attempt to restore Iraq as a sovereign state
capable of playing a positive role in the region rather than being just an
Iranian colony.
It was remarkable that the crimes that were
committed in Iraq shortly after the prime minister's departure to Washington,
as it appeared that they were Iranian messages to Al-Kazemi.
The Iranian regime works to prevent Iraq from
leaving under its cloak, with several tools, including assassinating activists
and targeting government and foreign headquarters, which makes the country's
future fraught with dangers, especially with the arrival of
"Al-Kazemi" to the post of prime minister, and the initiation of many
steps to reduce Iranian hegemony in Iraq. .
The efforts of the Iraqi Prime Minister, Mustafa
Al-Kazemi, to open up to the Arab environment, limit Iranian interference in
the affairs of his country and curb the influence of the militias affiliated
with the Revolutionary Guard, re-shed light on Iran's role in deepening Iraq's
crises and plundering its capabilities over the past 17 years, as the mullahs'
regime considers Iraqi lands and wealth in all its fields. , Devoted to his
service and part of his backyard.
