» Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi holds the world responsible for rebuilding Iraqi cities destroyed in the war to liberate them from the control of the Islamic State (IS). Noting the great sacrifice in blood by Iraqi forces in that war, Mr Abdul Mahdi told a press conference this week, "The world has to repay the favour in terms of the security, stability and stopping the movement of displacement to other countries. The world has to repay the favour to Iraq to rebuild its areas".
