Hussein al-Shahristani, deputy prime minister for energy and a leading figure in the ruling coalition, said that cooperation with the United States in the area of intelligence will be limited to matters such as supply Iraq with information picked up by satellites, and that he will not stay any aircraft or radar Americans on the land of Iraq, although this would mean loss of valuable information about the movement of insurgents and violent cells between the cities and near the border. He also spoke during a panel discussion with the media at his office last Thursday, very optimistic for the conduct of the investment projects, the giant carried out by foreign companies in the oil fields, and stated that what is happening in Basra alone to increase production, represents the biggest development of the wells in the history of the oil industry.
He responded to al-Shahristani, questions "the world" on the confirmation of the Interior Ministry had become a "blind" in the four provinces of hot after the withdrawal of combat aircraft, the U.S. which used to monitor the movement of militants, saying "surely the radars and U.S. aircraft provide us with valuable information about many things related to the security file, Today withdraw radars, aircraft, and we are losing that information. "
He said al-Shahristani said, "We can not make up for intelligence quickly, Aftaúrat America or their radars will not return to Iraq under the withdrawal agreement, and that Iraq needs some time to get the systems, surveillance and air cover over its own aircraft, but we're betting on security and intelligence cooperation with all countries of the world is not America's alone.
