Iraqi Leader Says Iraq Needs Russia Not US

Nouri al-Maliki, the puppet that Washington put in office in Iraq after destroying the country said yesterday: “we would like Russia to have a substantial presence in our country, both politically and militarily.”

In his talks with Russia’s Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov, earlier Monday, al-Maliki stressed that a Russian presence in Iraq would bring the balance which couldn’t be “undermined in a political sense in favor of any external party.”

Perhaps Russia will bring the “freedom and democracy” to Iraq that Washington promised but after 14 years has failed to deliver.
