In
light of the current “tense” situation in Iraq, created by the elections, the
Chaldean Bishops in Iraq, assembled under the Chairmanship of His Beatitude
Patriarch Louis Raphael Cardinal Sako at the Summer Patriarchal Residence in
Ankawa / Erbil, on Saturday morning, October 23, 2021 addressed the following
appeal:
Calling
upon all Iraqi politicians to follow the national and fraternal values, in
order to give priority to the public interest rather than partisan agendas.
This can be achieved by getting together in a calm and civilized dialogue
explaining each other’s point of view, to end the current tension generated by
the recent election.
Chaldean
Bishops urged Iraqi politicians to expedite the formation of a government of
national competencies, capable of realizing the demands of Iraqi people and
preventing the country from “slipping” for the worse. Knowing that threatening
or using weapons to solve problems between citizens is one of the major “sins”
in all customs, as weapons are for the defense of the homeland only.
May
Iraq be preserved and protected in the consciences of its loyal citizens.
