AhlulBayt News Agency - Senior Expediency Council Official Ali Akbar Velayati stressed that the Iraqi nation and government will overcome terrorists.
He made the remarks while talking to reporters on the sidelines of a meeting with a group of Indian Sunni ulema and thinkers here on Monday.
Asked to comment on the situation in Falluja, Iraq, he said a very sensitive and strategic measure was underway there which will make the Iraqi people and government triumphant over terrorists.
He said this would be a great victory for Iraq.
Velayati said the operation will open the way for liberation of Mosul parts of which are dominated by terrorists.
He further commented on remarks by the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council member states which have accused Iran of politicizing the issue of Hajj.
He said Hajj is both a religious and a political issue but the fact is that the Saudis are not capable to fulfill their duties in protecting the pilgrims and administering the event.
The Saudi officials proved last year that they lack efficiency in running Hajj affairs, said Velayati.
