The Commission on Security and Defence in the Iraqi Council of Representatives of the continued negotiations with the mission of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) to extend its mission of training in Iraq, which is due to expire end of this month ie with the complete withdrawal of U.S. forces.

At the time when the visit of the Minister of Defense American Leon Panetta to Iraq to participate in the ceremony of the curtain on the American military presence, which lasted nine years, announced the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) that the task of mission training in Iraq will end on 31 this December.

The Secretary General of NATO Anders Fogh Rasmussen said in a statement that he "After Iraq refused to grant immunity to components of the alliance could not find agreement on the extension of this program trail of success, in spite of painstaking negotiations between NATO and the Iraqi authorities."

Iraqi Parliament Speaker Osama Najafi and at a news conference Monday, said that the Council discussed a draft agreement with NATO, But the issue of granting immunity is that disables the Convention, because parliament refused to grant judicial immunity full for any foreign troops on Iraqi territory, stressing that the parliament is to decide on granting partial immunity non-judicial.

A statement issued by the Mission of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) for training in Iraq , that the NATO mission since 2004 has trained thousands of police and army recruits in Iraq, and set up advanced security courses for the training of many of the senior officers of the Iraqi security institutions. The statement added that ending the mission the training of NATO does not mean the end of the relationship between NATO and Iraq, as the parties are committed to continue in the partnership strategy.

MP Abbas al-Bayati, a member of the Commission on Security and Defense Council of Representatives explained in Tsrha Radio Free Iraq that Iraq is keen to continue the mission NATO to train cadres of the army and the police, but the alliance is required to extend the immunity of its components numbering according to the agreement around 300. Bayati said they will continue to negotiate with the mission of NATO in the hope that the re-mission to reconsider its position.

The MP for the coalition in Iraq Hamid al-Mutlaq, a member of Commission on Security and Defence Parliamentary sees that the Iraqi people and the parliament refused to grant immunity to trained foreigners, and the reason is due to the conduct of American soldiers, and their way of dealing, which was a lot of abuse of citizens.

The commanders and Iraqi officials have repeatedly expressed concern of the non-completion of the readiness of Iraqi forces and security services, especially in the field of air defense. MP Abbas al-Bayati, a member of the Commission on Security and Defence stressed during a telephone interview with Radio Free Iraq on Wednesday for Iraq's need for trained and the importance of benefiting from the experiences of U.S. trainers and NATO, because 80% of Iraq's weapons U.S. and Western-made, pointing out that the United States expressed its readiness to supply Iraq with trainers in a deal to buy weapons, and hopes Bayati to come out of negotiations with the NATO mission with appropriate wording would satisfy both parties to keep the coaches and extend the work of the mission in Iraq after the end of 2011.

Political analyst Ibrahim Sumaidaie believes that the NATO forces, or any western forces enjoy immunity during their work in the most countries in the region, but the issue of immunity in Iraq is subject to political outbidding, because the country is developing internal political complex, as evidenced by political divisions, large, and there are parties in the coalition government is pressing the government to prevent it from granting immunity to trained Americans and foreigners. and adds Sumaidaie that countries advanced with systems of democratic sophisticated, such as Germany and South Korea will host experts and foreign coaches and give them immunity, and finds that the difference of views with Iraqi politicians, spoiling a chance for Iraq in the expertise of foreign coaches, and the delivery of Iraq to the ranks of developed nations, accusing the party of internal and external do not want to see a strong Iraq and sophisticated. and talked blocks political in the forefront of the Sadrist bloc for the importance of finding alternatives to the U.S. trainers using trainers from neighboring countries such as Iran and Turkey or Eastern European countries and China, and finds Sumaidaie that for Iraq a historic opportunity to use experience of the United States and NATO, criticizing the talk about alternatives. did not rule out Sumaidaie government to use Iraq to look for the corners of the law provides a limited number of experts as advisers in Iraq, or attempt to persuade the U.S. to receive these trainers to give them diplomatic immunity, and this opinion funny for a country with the rule and was able to get rid of with honor and pride of the military presence, the largest in the region through the withdrawal agreement the U.S.. and expected Sumaidaie to keep the readiness of Iraqi forces is limited, and that denied Iraq the opportunity to benefit from the most important source, and the most powerful weapon in the world, in the event of continued strong political pressure on the government on the subject of immunity, and pushed it to look for alternatives, and headed Iraq's weapons market East. contributed to the file Radio Free Iraq correspondent in Baghdad, Mohamed Karim to listen, please open the link below
