What is the Aim of Saudi-Led Islamic Coalition Against Terrorism?
MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Iraq will most likely not join the Saudi-led coalition in the fight against Daesh (the Islamic State), a terrorist orgamization prohibited in many countries including the United States and Russia, a member from the Iraqi Parliament’s Security Committee told Sputnik on Tuesday.

“I think that Iraq will refuse to join this coalition because it is going after its own goals <…>The Iraqi Parliament, as well as its largest party the Iraqi National Alliance, will undoubtedly call on the government not to join this coalition and not support it in any way,” Majid al-Gharaoui said.
