Alwaght- Iraq’s Parliament on Sunday passed a resolution condemning the US move to recognize al-Quds (Jerusalem) as Israeli regime's capital.
The Iraqi lawmakers decided that the US decision was a provocation to all religions and a threat to international peace.
The lawmakers also said al-Quds is the undisputed capital of the Palestinian state.
US President Donald Trump sparked global anger on December 6, when he declared that Washington would recognize al-Quds as the “capital” of Israel and move the American embassy from Tel Aviv to the holy city.
Later, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution by a decisive vote of 128 to 9 to urge Trump to reverse his contentious decision.
