BASRA / Aswat al-Iraq: *****A source in Basra Political Council said that some parties expressed reservations on a statement issued earlier yesterday night, as well protested for wording it.*****
The Council comprises 23 political organizations and blocs.
The source told Aswat al-Iraq about the reservations and the wording of the statement which is believed does not benefit the present situation and pacify the atmosphere.
*****The Council called *****"the Iraq government to build urgently *****the Greater Fao Port, prevent Kuwaiti piracy *****against Iraqi fishermen and to accuse Kuwait with bad intentions".*****
According to the source,***** the objecting parties wanted "to follow-up diplomatic means,***** non-escalation and discussing border demarcation.*****
"This does not that they are not against Kuwaiti attempt to build Mobarak terminal,***** atrocities against Iraqi fishermen *****and violating Iraqi borders,***** but we believe to resort to diplomatic means *****and understanding due to our deep-rooted relation", *****the source added.
The objecting entities were the Higher Islamic Council, the Islamic Party, the National Iraqi Party, the Iraqi Communist Party, Hizbullah (Iraq) Party and Southern Ulama' (Clergymen) Group.
The Political Council, comprising of 23 political parties and blocs, was formed in Basra in 2006, following sectarian violence.
It tried to coordinate opinions in the non-ideologically harmonic council which range from religious and non-religious circles.
Basra, center of the province, lies 590 km to the south of the capital, Baghdad.
