policy is against tehran can baghdad really confront washington on this while it still depends on it militarily. i don't think it kind of to a point obviously but if it if it goes if it breaks flagrantly the american unilateral sanctions on iran it has to be prepared to pay the consequences and the consequence is that the united states controls most of the international agencies on which iraq is one way or another dependent especially the financial agencies in washington and as much as they can influence the disposition of the resources the financial resources available to iraq in our excess to two international markets and obviously they can affect the extent to which the. government can. declare an object on the independent course of action abuse or beyond. time i think there are a few government does have a very cogent argument that. interests with iran so intertwined at the economic and commercial level that it would be. in everyone's interests including that of united states not to see this disrupted to the detriment of the arche economy so they may have an entry point but if th
