The Pentagon protege in Iraq promises that the pro -American government in the country will not be

The leader of the Iraqi National Congress (INC) Ahmad Chalabi came to the south of Iraq from London, where he lived in exile. It was reported that Ahmed Chalabi, whom the United States would like to see Saddam Hussein, was secretly delivered to Iraq a week ago.

The day before, this Iraqi oppositionist held consultations in Washington, where he has many influential friends. The Pentagon reads Chalabi for the main role in the temporary Iraqi government. However, the struggle for power is just beginning. Interview with Chalabi publishes today the newspaper website.

Answering the question if he is sure that the Iraqi opposition will have the right to its opinion in the Iraq government, where the American ministers will sit, the leader of the Iraqi National Congress said: “There will be no American government in Iraq. We are now creating a temporary Iraqi government that will have to prepare the country for free elections. Iraq will remain a single, integral country. And with the Kurds in the north, we are counting on the north We also agreed. "

Touching the US proposal to write off all Iraq debts, including those amounts that Baghdad owe to Russia, Chalabi said that the Iraqi opposition does not put forward such requirements. He said: "Iraqis respect their obligations, we are going to build a free, self -respecting state, behave in a civilized way. So this is not a matter.

We will conduct bilateral negotiations with each of the states, to which Baghdad has any obligations, the same debts, contracts. International legitimacy should also apply in this regard. We believe that we must be liable for these obligations. Moreover, we want to have good relations with Russia, a country that has a great influence. "

Speaking about the position of Russia in relation to the war in Iraq, the leader of the Iraqi National Congress said: “Yes, Russia's position was not the way we would like. In our opinion, there was a dictatorship in Iraq, and we hoped that Moscow, including, would help us to get rid of it. After all, the Russians themselves had similar experience - the dictatorship in the USSR. And the Russians got rid of it! But recently the position of Putin’s president improved by Putin’s position So that we would like to take part in the post -war recovery of Iraq and we will not exist about this with Moscow.

Ahmad Chalabi claims that Saddam is alive and is located near Baghdad, in the northeast from the capital. In the coming days, the situation will clear.

Commenting on their reasons for Iraq, which many media described as a return on American tanks and to the accompaniment of American bombing, Chalabi said that he was not ashamed for this, despite the fact that the Arab public perceived his return quite warily.

In his opinion, “this is those who criticize us and the Americans are ashamed. I am not ashamed. I free the country. Is it ashamed to the French or Germans that the Americans liberated them from the Nazis? We will build a free society in Iraq.”

The reason for the displeasure of the Arab world, it is likely that it also lies in the fact that accusations of financial violations have not been removed from the head of the Iraqi National Congress , the main of which concerns the banking scandal in Jordan, where it is about $ 200 million.

The Pentagon promised not to impose an Iraqi government formed by the United States from representatives of the Iraqi opposition in exile
