[Oan- Baghdad]
Special Representative of the UN Secretary - General Jan Kubis, the Daesh days in Iraq , he said , "are numbered" and praised the "initiative of the National Alliance , the national settlement."
He said Kubis to surround him to the UN Security Council on Thursday " The Security Council members of the delegates, I am honored to present the second report of the Secretary-General pursuant to paragraph 7 of resolution 2299 [2016] as well as the thirteenth report of the Secretary-General pursuant to paragraph 4 of resolution 2107 [2013] on the issue of missing Kuwaitis and other nationals and property. "
He added , "Let me start by paying tribute to the courage of the Iraqi security forces , including the popular crowd and the Peshmerga forces and volunteers of the sons of tribal forces, as well as the patience of the Iraqi people, Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al - Abadi has announced on January 24 end of combat operations in the eastern part of Mosul , three months after at the start of the military operation there. "
He continued , "should not obscure this steady progress is the fact that the fighting has been and remains a major challenge, especially within the old city west of Mosul, and will remain the Iraqi forces, supported by a large international partners, particularly the Americans, will remain involved in the complex combat operations in urban areas, however, , in the near foreseeable future, editing operations will end in Iraq since the days of the so - called Bdaash are numbered. "
He said Kubis "I would like to take this opportunity to stand in tribute to the souls of the martyrs who sacrificed their lives while fighting terrorism , international Daesh for free and unified Iraq, and in defense of common human values in the world, allies of the powerful United States and the international coalition 's anti-Daesh."
He noted , "We have met with Executive Order Alagiralve issued by the US administration recently on stop immigration temporarily, in Iraq , regret and astonishment, at a press conference on January 31, Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al - Abadi described the decision as an abuse, and noted that the Iraqi government has options studied to respond but Baghdad will not take measures to reciprocate. "
The UN official expressed hope for continued implementation of the strategic framework between Iraq and the United States agreement and stressed that the fight against terrorism a strategic objective for Iraq. And also he pointed to the common economic interests, and called on the US administration to reconsider its decision.
He added that " the Iraqi Foreign Ministry expressed its regret for the resolution against Iraq , which is an ally linked to a strategic partnership with the United States, the ministry urged the United States to reconsider its decision, and stressed Iraq 's real desire to strengthen and develop the strategic partnership between the two countries and increase the prospects for cooperation in the fight against terrorism and economic field.
and went "in the post - Daesh, Iraq will need the support and help of continuous and large Aldulin community , including regional partners. Any sudden reluctance to participate and support will mean repeat past mistakes and will have serious consequences for the security and stability beyond the borders of Iraq and even in the world.
The continuing fighting serious humanitarian repercussions, where heavy casualties lies on the military and civilian levels. And targeting the so - called organized Daesh deliberately civilians trying to escape from the control areas, and the shelling of civilians at random in the liberated areas, and used civilians as human shields, deliberately stationed inside the hospitals, schools and near.
It gives the human concept of operations and adopted by the Iraqi government and Iraqi security forces including the popular crowd forces, priority to the protection of civilians in a manner unprecedented in the planning of military operations and implementation, based on the lessons derived from the mistakes of previous edits. They eased away behavior of all forces during the liberation operations of many of the concerns that were in the population before the operation, but did not dissipated.
I would like to refer to Onalbosh not received any evidence of a widespread or systematic violations of international humanitarian law and human rights law by the security forces. However , it is still located, and in the unfortunate criminal acts against civilians and prisoners of war and are being investigated in the most rapidly with measures to prevent such acts in the future.
I would like in this Alhonon commend the rapid action taken by the Prime Minister issuing an order for an investigation after it was published video appeared online sites recently where he showed members of the Iraqi security forces and the forces operating in support of Iraqi security forces and they are ill - treatment of prisoners of fighters from Daesh and abuse.
The Iraqi government and the urge to deal with these issues required transparency for confidence in the souls broadcast that any violation carried punish perpetrators In this regard, I would like to refer to the alleged disappearances of hundreds of civilians in the context of the liberation of Fallujah operation in the month of June, especially in Saqlawiyah; it has been the formation of an investigative committee in this regard by the Prime Minister.
I urge the authorities to declare the results that will be reached by this committee, and the same applies to other investigations initiated in incidents of this kind.
I also note that the security verification procedures , which are subject to civilians in areas dominated by the Daesh appear to be conducted in a transparent manner and consistent in totality with international standards.
However , I wish to express concern about the disturbing reports about the theft and destruction of civilian property and looting of humanitarian assistance by armed groups operating in support of Iraqi security forces, especially by some local resistance groups.
It remains crucial to the Iraqi government, when the lieutenant is, to ensure that the establishment of security and work to restore the rule of law in all the liberated areas , with special attention to minorities, in cooperation with the KRG Peshmerga forces.
It is of the protection of civilians, and to avoid steps that raise sectarian tensions and prevent revenge attacks in Mosul and other liberated areas of the country, are extremely important in winning the hearts and minds of the population, because it constitutes the first steps in the national and community reconciliation process, and in the construction of a new and unified Iraq true unity feel it all people equal and fair treatment and protection of the state for them. Iraqi authorities and all the forces and urge participation in the processes of liberalization to continue the military campaign looming in the same spirit, respect and apply the basic principles of distinction and proportionality and take precautions to protect the civilian population and justice for the victims. https://www.alliraqnews.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=57782
