Iraqi government spokesman Ali Al-Dabbagh has called on Arab countries, headed by Saudi Arabia and Egypt, to open embassies in the country.
He said that the lack of an Arab presence in Iraq is a strategic mistake, because iraq is part of the Arab nation.
Al-Dabbagh also called on Arab countries to forgive Iraq's debts to them, in order to stabilize its economy.
