Iraq’s foreign minister has cautioned that external parties using Iraq to launch
attacks on neighbours pose a serious threat to the nation’s security and regional
stability. The remarks underscore Baghdad’s ongoing diplomatic efforts to prevent
its territory from becoming an arena for cross-border conflicts.

## Risks Posed by External Parties Using Iraq

Addressing the security dynamics confronting the country, the foreign minister highlighted
the dangers of outside forces exploiting Iraqi territory. When external actors utilize
Iraqi land to stage operations against bordering states, it jeopardizes Iraq’s national
interests and exposes the country to potential retaliatory actions.

Iraqi authorities have consistently maintained that the nation must not serve as
a launchpad for regional hostilities. Officials emphasize that safeguarding the 
integrity of Iraqi borders is crucial for preserving domestic peace and preventing
broader escalations across the region.

## Protecting Iraqi Sovereignty and Regional Security

The foreign minister reiterated Baghdad’s commitment to protecting national sovereignty
and upholding balanced relations with surrounding nations. Engaging in constructive
dialogue remains the central pillar of Iraq’s foreign policy as it seeks to insulate
itself from competing regional agendas.

By rejecting unauthorized military activity on its soil, the Iraqi government aims
to reassure its neighbours of its commitment to mutual security. Moving forward,
Baghdad continues to coordinate with diplomatic and security partners to reinforce
border control and ensure that sovereign territory is not compromised by foreign
interests.
