The United Nations recognizes the validity of Iraqi nautical charts.
On Friday, Abdul Sattar Fawaz Al-Dulaimi, a leader in the Azm Alliance, revealed that the United Nations had informed Kuwait, in an unannounced manner, of its recognition of the validity of the Iraqi maritime maps deposited with it, confirming that they are sound and documented with official evidence that leaves no room for doubt.
Al-Dulaimi told Al-Maalouma News Agency, “The United Nations has confirmed the validity of all the maritime maps submitted by Iraq, which prove its right to manage the Khor Abdullah crossing and other maritime sites that Kuwait tried to control, taking advantage of the collapse of the security situation in the past period.”
He pointed out that “Iraq’s depositing of these maps with the United Nations sparked a diplomatic controversy with Kuwait,” stressing that “the maps clearly demonstrate, beyond any doubt, that these areas have belonged to Iraq for centuries, according to official documents.”
He added that “the Kuwaiti government quickly tried to transfer the maps to rogue states in an attempt to manipulate Iraq’s officially documented properties.”
Al-Dulaimi concluded by asserting that “Kuwait’s approach to these countries is a transparent and clearly defined charade, and it cannot be allowed to pass.”
