Baghdad /NINA/ – Ammar al-Hakim, head of the National State Forces Alliance, visited the Diyala Operations Command headquarters on Thursday. He met with the operations commander and security leadership in the province, commending the efforts made to stabilize the security situation. He described Diyala as a "microcosm of Iraq" in terms of its social composition and touched upon the phase following the conclusion of the International Coalition’s mission against ISIS.

Al-Hakim urged the continued pursuit of security and intelligence operations, emphasizing the need for constant vigilance against terrorism and warning against complacency. He likened terrorist cells to "cancerous cells," noting that as Iraq prioritizes economic development, it requires stable security and an environment conducive to investment.

He called for fostering reassurance among the various social components and embracing all segments of society, while blocking any attempts to create an environment that might sympathize with or harbor terrorism. He stressed that responsibility should lie solely with the individuals involved, rather than being generalized to an entire region, district, or group. Furthermore, he advocated for self-reliance, leveraging the significant experience Iraqis have gained in confronting terrorism.

Al-Hakim remarked that security personnel must succeed at every step, whereas terrorists seek to assert their presence through any means possible—a challenging dynamic that leaves no room for anything less than success.

He also characterized the drug trade as a different form of terrorism, calling for comprehensive solutions that go beyond merely arresting traffickers. He underscored the necessity of implementing radical, long-term remedies through practical plans and programs./ End
