Disaster worldwide. So of course i do not call for any interference in iraq and reject it, even if it is the United States but friends also should provide advice and support and should play a role in order to bring the parties closer together. They should support their friend when they are in trouble. I mean we need weapons. We need political stand. We need an economic support and the United States need iraq to be a stable country to be secure, to be able to produce energy, to be democratic. All these are american and iraqi interests alike. Following the withdrawal of the American Forces we felt that iraq was left on its own while it was not stable yet or balanced enough and was not yet able to completely move towards a transition to a strong state. This is why at this point the center of power is balanced and situation that is something we need today.

The americans do not want iraq to support terrorism. One last question. Iraq is scheduled to have elections at the end of april. What would you like to see the United States do around those elections to make sure they are positive . We have seen elections that were extremely helpful to democracy and elections that were extremely disrupt full. What can the united dates due to ensure these are constructive elections and not destructive. There should be a message that should come from all countries to iraq that the election should be organized in a just and transparent way. We should be prepared. We should have a minimum stability, and there should not be decisions that are controversial, like the one that was taken two days ago, the reaction to al qaeda and so on. We should avoid concessional mobilization in order to be able to organize fair and just elections that can provide a solution to the iraqi problem. If we dont have international observers, if we do not have all these, the elect
