RNA - "Iran has special ties with its neighbors, particularly Iraq, which should be taken into account by other countries," Hakim said.

He also called on the regional countries to hold constructive talks in a bid to put an end to the regional conflicts.

In relevant remarks earlier in August, Ammar al-Hakim deplored the US unilateral sanctions against Iran.

"We believe that weakening Iran will neither benefit Iraq nor any of the regional states which intend to impose economic siege on the country, as the aftershocks of this measure will not be limited to Iran and will affect the entire region," Hakim said.
