Harakat Hezbollah al-Nujaba in Iraq: ‎
Rasa – The Iraqi Islamic Resistance group Harakat Hezbollah al-Nujaba accused the ‎‎president of the United States of violating Iraq’s sovereignty and stressed that his actions ‎‎would not go unpunished.‎

RNA – Along with other Iraqi groups, the Iraqi Islamic Resistance group Harakat Hezbollah ‎‎al-Nujaba (“The Movement of the Party of God’s Nobles”) reacted to the presence of Donald ‎‎Trump, the president of the United States, at the Ayn al-Asad Airbase in Iraq’s al-Anbar ‎‎Governorate, calling it “as a violation of Iraq’s sovereignty.”‎

President Trump and the first lady quietly, Melania Trump, secretly flew into Iraq Wednesday ‎‎to pay a holiday visit to American troops at the Ayn al-Asad Airbase, at last making good on ‎the President’s promise to ‎travel to one of the war zones he has derided as costly blunders.‎

Hashim al-Musawi, the official spokesman for Harakat Hezbollah al-Nujaba said in a ‎‎statement, “Donald Trump, the foolish president of the United States, must be aware that ‎‎Iraq’s sovereignty came with blood and the [American] military bases have no place in this ‎‎country of resistance and martyrs.”‎

al-Musawi continued, “The government has a duty to expel American troops because their ‎‎presence is a violation of the country’s sovereignty. Trump wants to weaken Iraq’s ‎‎sovereignty from the Ayn al-Asad Airbase, but we will not allow it at any cost.” ‎

The spokesman for Harakat Hezbollah al-Nujaba stressed that the violation of Iraqi ‎‎sovereignty by Trump “will not go unpunished.”‎

“We will not allow Iraq to be a base for threats against neighbouring countries and Trump’s ‎‎insults against the sovereignty of Iraq will not go unanswered,” the statement said.‎

Speaking at the airbase, he said that the United States was not about to retreat from Iraq.‎

The president of the United States further reiterated his decision to withdraw American ‎‎troops from Syria and said, “The United States shouldn’t be doing the fighting for every ‎‎nation on earth. Not being ‎reimbursed in many cases, if at all.‎”‎

Referring to the defeat of Daesh, Trump said “we’ve knocked them silly” and the caliph has ‎‎gone and had no plans to pull troops from Iraq and suggesting that if necessary, the United ‎‎States would carry out its operations in Syria from its military bases in Iraq. ‎

The secret trip of the president of the United States to Iraq was met with a strong response ‎‎by its officials and various Iraqi groups called for the withdrawal of the country’s military.‎
