Iraq today turns an important page of its history that lasted more than thirty years, and a new page begins in Iraq’s diplomatic, political and economic history, a page that strengthens its regional and international role in proportion to its history and cultural weight on the map of the region and the world, as an effective state in harmony with the aspirations and goals of the international community, as it seeks Iraq to strengthen frameworks of cooperation with the international community, led by the United Nations, considering that Iraq is one of the founders of this organization and the signatories to its charter on October 14, 1945, and in order to restore its role as an effective and responsible member of the international community.

In this context, my country's government affirms that working with the United Nations Compensation Commission and your esteemed council has been a successful model for multilateral action, a model that enhances confidence in international mechanisms and procedures in settling the crises that have afflicted and afflicted our world until today, and through this international mechanism and out of respect Iraq has fulfilled its obligations under the relevant Security Council resolutions and fully assumed its responsibilities, Iraq continued to fulfill these obligations in full in accordance with the timetables and percentages approved by the Compensation Committee, despite the difficult circumstances that Iraq experienced in the previous years of bearing the burdens and economic costs of fighting terrorism and taking its role at the forefront of the countries of the world To address the terrorist gangs of ISIS and recover the cities from the organization’s control, the costs of the programs to return the internally displaced to their cities, the programs to restore stability, services, provide aid and reconstruction costs, which were accompanied by a significant decrease in the prices of oil salesGlobalism.
In this regard, the Government of Iraq considers the full fulfillment of its international obligations towards the international community and the sisterly State of Kuwait, as a major development that would enhance Iraq's relations with its regional and international surroundings, as well as the Iraqi-Kuwaiti historical relations and move them to broad future horizons based on trust and equal bilateral relations. .
Mr president ...
Iraq has sought to complete this unique model of work, international effort and joint cooperation under the frameworks and mechanisms of the United Nations, through its full fulfillment of its international obligations, which in turn highlighted an international legal and moral commitment to the international community and the United Nations, which is to remove Iraq from all procedures of Chapter VII, and to preserve Iraq’s rights, funds and international legal entitlements, and its protection from any future claims within the framework of the international effort led by the United Nations, based on the Charter of the United Nations, the rules of international law and the general principles of international law in justice and equity, which enhances confidence in these UN mechanisms. This is what we were keen to confirm and defended hard to include it in the UN Security Council resolution in cooperation with the (British) pen holder and the rest of the Security Council members. As this international effort will not have completed its success until after Iraq's legitimate demands are embodied and included in the UN Security Council resolution.

In conclusion... Allow me, Mr. President, to express our thanks and appreciation to you and the other members of the Council, and to the pen holder, the esteemed British mission, which engaged in intensive negotiating rounds with the Iraqi mission, and to all the friendly countries that provided support system" rel="">support to my country to overcome this historical era that was Bitter for the peoples of the region, as well as our thanks and appreciation to the State of Kuwait, the leadership and people.
