Baghdad – Mawazine News
Adviser to Prime Minister Hussein Allawi referred today, Saturday, to the nature of Iraq’s work with the United Nations after the end of the UNAMI mission, while pointing out that Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani developed a road map for the work of the government apparatus after the end of the mission’s work in Iraq, stressing on the other hand that there is international cooperation to develop Iraq’s capabilities with artificial intelligence and confront climate change.


Allawi said, in a statement to the official agency, that “the Iraqi state has regained the capabilities and vitality of government institutions and succeeded in managing the economy, and this is what Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani worked on for more than a year and a half,” indicating that “there is very large activity for the Iraqi government in supporting the strengthening of the state, its capabilities and capabilities, as well as its regional and international relations.”


He added, “This made the countries of the world, the United Nations, alliances and international institutions praise the Iraqi government and recognize its capabilities to manage national sovereignty, enforce the law and manage the economy and political life naturally,” pointing out that “this made the Iraqi government, headed by Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani, tend to submit a request to the United Nations to end the UNAMI mission as well as to return to the exercise of the normal role of Iraq and the continuation of our relationship with the special institutions of the United Nations and its organizations.”


He stated, “Iraq’s national capabilities have been completed in managing its normal situation and the ability of the Iraqi state to manage national solutions and develop solutions to the problems it has suffered for 20 years,” pointing out that “this is what we have observed in the national renaissance since the government assumed responsibility in the fall of 2022 and until this moment; because there are national solutions to all the problems that we were facing the Kirkuk crisis, which was solved after the Prime Minister made strategic contacts with the leadership in the Kurdistan region and the national leaders in Kirkuk.”


He continued, “We want to develop our capabilities in the field of confronting climate change and in the field of economic reform, information technology, artificial intelligence and cybersecurity, and this requires that cooperation between the Iraqi state and the institutions of the government apparatus be carried out with the corresponding institutions, whether international through the United Nations, the institutions affiliated with international non-governmental organizations or countries corresponding to us through their institutions and ministries, as well as their management.”


He explained, “Cooperation will be continuous with these organizations in terms of exchanging experiences,” pointing out that “the Prime Minister has developed a road map for the work of the government agency in the post-UNAMI mission’s work in Iraq, which is to be the mechanism of the regional coordinator and work with international organizations and United Nations institutions in a natural and sectoral way, that is, the health sector and health organizations are working with the Ministry of Health and relevant ministries, as well as the provinces in which epidemics may be a challenge, as well as challenges facing their diseases in Iraq.”


He continued, “Iraq, according to international reports, is the most vulnerable to climate change, which requires national plans on which Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani worked on,” explaining that “the development of our ability to face the effects of climate challenges is important, whether in our use of water or changing building systems and the sustainability of agriculture and green spaces.”


Allawi, on the other hand, stated that “encouraging the Iraqi private sector, encourages the capabilities of young people in this field and engaging them through the Supreme Council for Youth as well as the initiatives launched by the Prime Minister in the sustainability of environmental life, which will produce large investment projects while reducing the burning of gas to reduce carbon emissions inside Iraq and will thus protect the reality of our southern governorates and the central Euphrates regions of gas burning operations and turning it into national wealth, and this is what the Prime Minister worked in Maysan as well as in Basra and in Nasiriyah.”


He pointed out that “there is sustainable work in other governorates that will increase our capabilities in the process of responding to climate change in addition to raising awareness and educating about the effects of the environment on public life,” noting that “there are awareness campaigns carried out by universities, schools and educational institutions as well as civil society organizations, away from the mission.”
