Tehran, Iran, Jul. 28 – Iran’s hard-line president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad met with Iraqi oil minister Abdul Kareem Luaibi on Wednesday and stated that both countries have the same enemies and that only cooperation would lead to the defeat of their common foes.

“The Iranian and Iraqi nations have common interests and enemies, based on which they should expand their cooperation”, Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying by the state-run news agency Fars. 

He went on to declare that both countries should combine their forces against their adversary so that “no enemy can threaten them and impose its will on regional nations”.

Ahmadinejad underlined that economic cooperation was a fundamental factor in creating this common goal.

Recently, Iran, Iraq and Syria signed a $10-billion agreement for the transit of Iranian gas from the Islamic Republic’s South Pars gas field to Europe via Lebanon and the Mediterranean Sea.

Iraq has already said that it needs between 10 to 15 million cubic meters of Iran’s gas, Syria about 15 to 20 million, and Lebanon about five to seven million cubic meters until 2020.
