Iraq’s National Security Adviser Qassim Al-Araji on
Wednesday discussed border security with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas
Araghchi during a phone call focused on preventing infiltration along the
shared frontier.

In a statement, Al-Araji indicated that the
conversation reviewed rapidly evolving regional developments. Both sides stressed
the need to strengthen coordination and cooperation to secure the border.

Al-Araji also reaffirmed Iraq’s consistent position
that “crises should be addressed through dialogue and diplomatic channels while
rejecting further military escalation or expansion of the conflict.” Such an
approach, he said, is essential to protect regional stability and shield
populations from the consequences of war.
