“The regional countries benefit from talks and not conflicts,” Masjedi and Hakim said during their meeting in Baghdad on Tuesday.

“Everyone’s interest is in using the tool of talks and keeping the region away from any conflict that could affect the regional and global security,” Hakim said during the meeting.

The two sides discussed regional developments as well as the situation in Iraq.

In a relevant development on Monday, Iraq’s Islamic Resistance Movement Al-Nujaba denounced Washington’s destructive role in the Arab country, blaming the US for being behind corruption and chaos in the country.

Iraq's Islamic Resistance Movement Al-Nujaba issued a statement on its website blaming the United States for corruption and unrest in the country.

Al-Nujaba urged the Iraqi protesters to comply with the advice of Iraqi Shiite authorities to not allow the Ba'athist and American occupiers to infiltrate peaceful demonstrations.

The Iraqi Islamic Resistance movement also condemned the killing of Iraqi security forces and members of Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF).

The statement came as protests escalated in the Iraqi capital Baghdad and other cities.
