He added: "If Iraq does not comply, we will be in front of it, just as the violation of human rights is the most serious impact on international law and the United Nations Charter.  It is the ones that bring down the countries as happened to Iraq before 2003 in resolution 688 and longitude 36 and 32."

Al-Tamimi said, "This was accompanied by the American bill proposed by the American Congress on the American State Department, this law differs from the American treasury decisions, which is moral," stressing, "But this law, which will be legislated after 90 days, has an international character and may allow the use of military executive force."
