Iraq's main Sunni bloc to participate in government
Iraq's main Sunni bloc said Saturday that it will definitely participate in the next Iraqi government, after parliament implemented one of its key conditions and cleared the way for Shiite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki to announce at least a partial cabinet in the coming week.
Iraqi Shiite Muslims are fighting in Syria alongside troops of President Bashar Al Assad, Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari said in remarks published on Friday, while insisting this was not the policy of the Baghdad government.
