We congratulate the press community on the occasion of their National Day, and we commend the sacrifices made to defend the rights and aspirations of the Iraqi people, and we bless the national role that supports the development of the country and confronts the forces of evil and darkness.
Emphasizing the positions of the Iraqi press and its history, which has been initiated since the founding of Al-Zawraa newspaper since more than a century and a half ago and continued to this day, in creativity and brilliance, we wish the Iraqi press community on this occasion greater success in performing their duties and continuing their giving in service of our beloved country.
