Tensions have been rising over the past few weeks in Anbar, a province that makes up a third of Iraq's territory along the Euphrates River.
During the phone conversation on Tuesday, al-Nujaifi briefed Larijani on the latest status quo in Anbar province, and called for Larijani’s help to resolve the situation in the crisis-hit area.
Larijani, for his part, underlined that dialogue is the best way to soothe the current chaotic situation in Al-Anbar province, and said, “We are ready as always to provide any help and assistance for resolving the problems of friendly and brotherly Iraq and we hope that all statesmen and political figures show wisdom and adopt the necessary measures, given the current critical situation and the type of the problems that Iraq is entangled in.”
