Ahmadinejad says US is the problem in Iraq

DOHA — Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad accused the United States on Friday of stirring up divisions between Iraq’s Shias, Sunnis and Kurds, saying Washington is “the cause of the problem” in the war-torn country.
His comments came a day after US President George W. Bush met with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri Al Maliki, urging the Iraqi leader to crack down on Shia militias blamed in sectarian violence. Iran is believed to back some of the militias.
Ahmadinejad spoke in an interview with the Arab news network Al Jazeera during a visit to the Qatari capital Doha to attend the opening of the Asian Games.
In Doha, the Iranian leader held talks with Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, from the militant Hamas movement, which is allied to Iran.
Ahmadinejad repeated Iran’s calls for the United States to pull its troops out of Iraq.
Iraqis “know how to govern themselves and provide their own security. You are the reason of the problem,” he told Al Jazeera, looking at the camera and addressing the United States and Britain. “Get out of Iraq and leave the Iraqi people alone.”
