Allawi made the comments in response to a question by Al-Iraqiah satellite TV channel on Iranian and Syrian meddling in Iraq and the recent evidence that had been obtained in that regard.
Allawi said that he had written to Iraqs neighbours giving names and specific information that had been discovered and that he was now awaiting a response. We are waiting for a response from them (Iran and Syria), he said.
The Iraqi Defence Minister, Hazem Shaalan, announced yesterday that he had fresh information on Iranian and Syrian meddling in Iraq. I have important information regarding the interference into Iraq by these two countries, Hazem Shaalan said. Speaking on Al-Arabia satellite TV channel, Shaalan stated, The Iraqi people will soon see footage of the confessions of one of the perpetrators who has information about the meddling of these two countries in Iraq.
Allawi, questioned about the footage, replied Certain countries host those who harm the Iraqi people we will not tolerate harm done to the people of Iraq.
Allawis words displayed a strong sense of frustration towards Iran and Syria. He said that his government would not turn a blind-eye to foreign meddling, forever.
