Iraqi Prime Minister Aliafalah Al-Zaydi met with Emmanuel Macron, President of France, in Paris. The meeting took place one day after Iran’s border crossings were closed by Iraq. At the same time, a criminal court in Baghdad issued an order for the arrest and confiscation of assets against Omid Haji Ahmad, an Iraqi-British businessman, due to the illegal sale of Iranian oil and its ship-by-ship transfer.
