1. “Iraq is a country that deserves to live in safety and to have an opportunity to fulfil the aspirations of its people, especially after the war it has waged against terrorism. The Government of Iraq was recently able to take the following measures. The Cabinet has now been formed with the appointment of the Ministers of Defence, the Interior and Justice by the Council of Representatives, which chooses ministers with a high degree ofprofessionalism and experience. They took their constitutional oath on 24 June. That was the result of considerable integration and coordination among the three presidencies. Iraq in general, and the governorates that have been liberated from Da'esh in particular, has experienced improved security and stability. All the roads in Baghdad that had been closed since 2003 have been reopened.”

2. “Given the circumstances and the potential available, there is great hope that my country's Government will manage to achieve the objectives of the governmental programme for the period 2018 to 2022, the implementation of which requires structural economic reforms with a view to harnessing Iraq's resources and putting them in the service of the Iraqi people. The most important challenges facing Iraq today include bringing about economic reform, supporting the status and rights of women, protecting and bolstering human rights and eradicating unemployment. The biggest challenges lie in the areas of security and social development. However, all of those reforms require a stable economic environment.”

3. “It marked a new phase on the country's journey and offered reassurance of the good intentions of Iraq and Kuwait to build good neighbourly relations and resolve crises in the region through political and diplomatic means. We also thank Special Representative Hennis- Plasschaert for the efforts she made along with her team to guarantee that the visit went smoothly. We thank her as well for her close cooperation with the Iraqi authorities while implementing her mandate as per resolution 2470 (2019) and providing Iraq and Kuwait with the support to implement resolution 2107 (2013). What the Iraqi cities are witnessing today demonstrates that Iraqis share a common objective, namely, a determination to live a life of freedom and dignity and to have a Government that serves its citizens and provides them with services.”

4. “Mr. Fatah (Iraq) (spoke in Arabic): At the outset, I would like to congratulate you, Madam President, on managing the work ofthe Council wisely during August. I would like also to thank the Special Representative of the Secretary-General and Head of the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI) for her briefing. On behalf of the Government of Iraq, I thank the two delegations of the United States of America and the sisterly Kuwait for organizing the regional visit of the Security Council mission to cities in Kuwait and Baghdad. The first visit of its kind, it signalled the continued strong commitment of the international community to support the stability, prosperity, sovereignty, independence and security of Iraq.”
