NCRI - In an interview with Jordanian newspaper, Al-Arab Al-Youm on Friday, Sheikh Khalaf Al-Alyan, the leader of the Iraqi Dialogue Council, warned about the meddling of Iranian regime in Iraqi affairs.

"There are forces which are trying hard to maintain Iran’s dominance in Iraq and to divide the country," Alyan said. He also welcomed comprehensive sanctions and terrorist labeling of the Revolutionary Guards and the Qods Force and added, "The Qods force of the Revolutionary Guards has committed numerous crimes against the Iraqi people. Today, in Iraq we are witnessing tortures that we never could have imagined or heard of, even in our dreams, actions that our history does not recall."

The Qods Force of the Revolutionary Guards has also committed extensive crimes against the Iranian people. Placing this force in the terrorist list will limit their terrorist operations in Iraq and Iran and will help reveal the groups which are cooperating with them. This will help establishing security in Iraq and return to the normal situation.
