With great regret, he wrote in his message to the Speaker of the Iraqi Parliament Salim al-Jabouri on Tuesday, "I became aware of the martyrdom and injury of a large number of Iraqi people in a terrorist blast in Karrada in central Baghdad this month."
Expressing his deep condolences and regret over the painful event and condemning the heinous terrorist act, Larijani expressed his sincere sympathy to his Iraqi counterpart, honorable members of Iraqi parliament, government and people of the Republic of Iraq.
He ensured that these terrorist acts truly display the inability and desperation of terrorists and their supporters over the government and people of Iraq’s victory in the decisive battle of Fallujah.
“I would like to underline that the Islamic Republic of Iran will remain beside the government and people of Iraq until the defeat of all terrorists,” Larijani noted.
He expressed Iran’s readiness for any cooperation and support in order to establish and consolidate peace and security in the neighboring country.
“With the help of Almighty God, final victory over Takfiri terrorists and their complete destruction will be close,” Larijani added.
He also hoped for the success and prosperity of Iraqi people and government.
