Al-Shammari told the Iraqi News Agency (INA): "More than 18 initiatives were announced during the Arab summit in Baghdad yesterday."
He added that "a large part of these initiatives came from Iraq, while the other part came from brotherly countries," noting that "what distinguishes these initiatives is that they are comprehensive and address the problems, issues, and political files some countries are facing."
He pointed out that "the initiatives included relief, economic, and security issues, as well as touching on digital transformation and artificial intelligence," noting that "Iraq is capable of forming an executive system, especially with the Prime Minister's directive to work diligently and effectively to implement the summit's decisions, reflecting the image of the new Iraq and its commitment to implementing the summit's decisions."
He explained that "if these decisions are implemented, it will be an exceptional summit compared to previous summits, whose decisions were not translated into practical implementation on the ground." He noted that "the initiatives launched by Baghdad, or those presented by participating countries, will all be within a specific work program with clear timelines and mechanisms, through specialized teams that will undertake the tasks of monitoring implementation."
