PNN – An Iraqi parliament member warned against America’s colonial intentions towards the country’s oil resources.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network, citing Al-Ma’alumah, Iraqi MP Nissan Al-Salihi emphasized that US President Donald Trump’s recent remarks regarding the country’s oil show what Washington’s intentions are.
He added: The US government does not view Iraq as a political or strategic partner, but rather as a source of wealth that it can use for its own interests in the region.

Trump’s controversial remarks: Iraq has so much oil that it doesn’t know what to do with it!
Al-Salihi stated: Today, America looks at Iraq from a purely economic perspective with the aim of controlling its oil resources, and talk of supporting Iraq’s stability is just a slogan.
US President Donald Trump made a remarkable speech during the Sharm el-Sheikh summit held in Egypt, saying that Iraq has so much oil that it doesn’t know what to do with it!
Trump’s remarks are considered a warning, given America’s history of plundering the resources of countries around the world, including Iraq and Syria.
He added: When you have a lot of assets and don’t know how to use them, you’re facing a big problem.
It seems that Trump’s words are a pretext for further plundering of Iraq’s resources.
