Sheila  butterfly Read article above that Kazemi is in Saudi signing MOU with Prince Salman. Might this be Victory Tour? Might this be Iraq finally getting a seat at the adults table again?

butterfly  sheila There have been articles about getting with a lot of those countries but I am focused on signing the bill/law for the budget.

Sheila  butterfly Parliament doing what they were told to do... and ... Kazemi off in another country?
