Economist: The second phase of US sanctions on Iran will include Iraq

The economic expert Abdul Rahman al-Mashhadani warned on Sunday that Iraq will continue to adopt a policy supportive of the Iranian economy, adding that Iraq will include in the event of imposing the second phase of sanctions on Iran.

"It is not wise to go in the direction of destruction for Iran or a neighboring country, and Iraq must realize the magnitude of the American threat and seriousness against Iran," Mashhadani told the news agency.

He added that "about six banks will be among the sanctions on Iran next June, as well as the imposition of further sanctions on Iraq if it continues to deal with trade."

"The signing of economic agreements with Iran is a grave mistake at a time of increasing international pressure against Tehran," Mashhadani said, adding that "the future US sanctions explicitly stipulate the inclusion of any party that deals with Iran commercially, oil and the like."
