Deception of Israeli journalists for an interview with the Iraqi Foreign Minister.
Israeli I-24 reporters tricked into interviewing Iraqi foreign minister.
An informed Iraqi source reported on Monday that the Zionists had resorted to deception to interview the Iraqi Foreign Minister.
“The interview with the Iraqi Foreign Minister on the Israeli I-24 channel was not conducted with this channel,” the source told Russia Today.
He added that the interview was conducted with another network at the request of journalists who did not work for the Israeli network.
According to the source, the reporters who interviewed Hussein introduced themselves as reporters for France-24, but it was later revealed that they work for an Israeli network.
He added that the Iraqi and foreign ministers’ position on normalization was clear and based on the rejection of the issue, and that if the foreign minister had known that the interview would be broadcast on an Israeli network, he would certainly not have agreed.
“The position of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is the firm position of Iraq and its support for the Palestinian issue, the full implementation of the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people and the firm rejection of the issue of normalization with Israel,” Iraqi Foreign Ministry spokesman Ahmad al-Sahaf said in a statement last night.
“Iraq’s position is firm and in support of the Palestinian cause, which is accompanied by the full implementation of the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people,” he said, noting that this is a priority for the Iraqi government.
The Iraqi Foreign Ministry spokesman stressed that what was published by one media outlet was done by impersonating another institution; Because the Iraqi foreign minister repeated the phrase “no to normalization” either at the Manama conference or in numerous television interviews.
